script 'index.phtml' not found

I have used following code in IndexController:

$view = new Zend_View(array('scriptPath' =>'C:\Users\398853\Documents\NetBeansProjects\PhpProject3\application\views\scripts')); 
 echo $view->render('index.phtml');

But error is displayed as script 'index.phtml' not found in path (C:\Users\398853\Documents\NetBeansProjects\PhpProject3\application\views\scripts/)

I think the error occured because in script path '/' added instead of '\' at end.If yes then what is the solution for that?

Using IDEs, check the correct upload of your files. Just struggled twenty minutes to find that.

You need to pass the relative path to the script with the script path as base path so:

$view = new Zend_View(array('scriptPath' =>'C:\Users\398853\Documents\NetBeansProjects\PhpProject3\application\views\scripts'));
echo $view->render('index/index.phtml');

Should work. This is expecting you mean index action of index controller.

The directory separators are not important to PHP. If you want to be 100% on the save side use the constant DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR like this: 

$path = array(APPLICATION_PATH, 'views', 'scripts');
$view = new Zend_View(array('scriptPath' => implode(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, $path));

The direction of the slash actually shouldn't matter. You're getting this error because there is no file named index.phtml in ..\views\scripts

In PHP, always use forward slashes for paths. PHP will translate to the OS-specific directory separator for you:

$view = new Zend_View(array('scriptPath' =>'C:/Users/398853/Documents/NetBeansProjects/PhpProject3/application/views/scripts'));

When you use backslashes, PHP has NO way to know that you're actually specifying a path, so it treats them as escapes, so in effect your path came out to be:

C:Users398853DocumentsNetBeansProjectsetc....

which is highly unlikely to exist on your machine.

You should always use / instead of \ when you specify paths as it works both in windows and linux

$view = new Zend_View(array('scriptPath' =>'C:/Users/398853/Documents/NetBeansProjects/PhpProject3/application/views/scripts'));

And you should definitely use a relative path, not an absolute one as you are doing i think
