Codeigniter /application/core/Frontend_Controller.php not found on live server

I have developed my website at XAMPP on Win 7 machine, and it works perfect on localhost. When I uploaded it to a live server (linux). It started showing me this error:

Fatal error: Class 'Frontend_Controller' not found in /home/acephm3/public_html/phenomesoft.com/application/controllers/Home.php on line 3

I've checked and applied everything I could from google but no luck at all.

I am using CI version 3.0.3.

I have set $config['subclass_prefix'] = 'MY_';

Created My_Controller.php as follows in /application/core:

class My_Controller extends CI_Controller {

    public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
        // Your own constructor code

    }

    public function send_mail($from, $from_name, $to, $subject, $message, $smtp, $debug) { 

        $this->load->library('email');

        if (!$smtp) {

            $this->email->from($from, $from_name);
            $this->email->to($to);

            $this->email->subject($subject);
            $this->email->message($message);

            if ( $this->email->send() ) {

                $this->session->set_flashdata('message', 'We\'ve received your message. Thank you for contacting us.');
                redirect('contact_us');

            } else {

                if ($debug) {
                    echo $this->email->print_debugger();
                }

                return false;

            }

        }

    }

}

Included:

include_once('Frontend_Controller.php');

Created Frontend_Controller.php in /application/core/ as follows:

class Frontend_Controller extends My_Controller {

    public $data;

    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
        // Your own constructor code

        $this->data = array();
    }

    public function _load_template($tpl, $data)
    {
        $this->load->view('frontend/includes/header', $data);
        $this->load->view('frontend/'.$tpl, $data);
        $this->load->view('frontend/includes/footer', $data);
    }

}

Created a controller Home.php under apllication/controllers/:

class Home extends Frontend_Controller {

    public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
        // Your own constructor code
    }

    public function index(){
        $this->_load_template('home', $this->data);
    }

}

Set $route['default_controller'] = 'home'; in routes.php.

What else I have to do? Please note it once again that I have no issues on localhost.

Another way you could try is

Filename: MY_Controller.php

<?php

class MY_Controller extends CI_Controller {
   // Code Here
}

class Frontend_Controller extends MY_Controller {
    // Code here
}

With the front end controller class on the same file as MY_Controller.php

Home Controller

File name: Home.php

<?php

class Home extends Frontend_Controller {

}

I rather used another approach, took me a whole day to figure this out.

  1. Removed My_Controller.php and Frontend_Controller.php from application/core folder.
  2. Created a new controller Application.php in application/controllers and extended it from CI_Controller.
  3. Created another controller Frontend.php in application/controllers and extended it from Application controller (Don't forget to include Application.php at top of this Frontend.php controller).
  4. Now in my actual controller Home.php included Frontend.php at the top and extended home controller from Frontend controller.

That's all, now every time you create a new frontend controller extend it from Frontend controller.

Now in the same way I can create another controller for my backend controllers and extend all my backend controllers from it.

Enjoy..!!

Change:

include_once('Frontend_Controller.php');

To:

include_once( APPPATH.'core/Frontend_Controller.php' );

In Home controller

Put this code at the end of APPPATH . 'config.php' file:

spl_autoload_register(function ($class) {
    if (substr($class,0,3) !== 'CI_') {
        if (file_exists($file = APPPATH . 'core/' . $class . '.php')) {
            include $file;
        }
    }
});
