Phalcon Dev Tools - Builder doesn't knows where is the models directory

Question

I'm getting "Builder doesn't knows where is the models directory" error when I run the phalcon all-models command in both Command Line and Phalcon Webtools.

Please let me know what am I missing?

Web Tools Command line

My webtools.config.php content

define('PTOOLS_IP', '216.174.134.2');
define('PTOOLSPATH', '/var/www/html/vendor/phalcon/devtools');

My webtools.php content

use Phalcon\Web\Tools;

require 'webtools.config.php';
require PTOOLSPATH . '/scripts/Phalcon/Web/Tools.php';

Tools::main(PTOOLSPATH, PTOOLS_IP);

My config.ini content

[database]
adapter  = Mysql
host     = localhost
username = test
password = test
dbname   = test

[application]
controllersDir = ../app/controllers/
modelsDir      = ../app/models/
viewsDir       = ../app/views/
pluginsDir     = ../app/plugins/
libraryDir     = ../app/library/
cacheDir       = ../app/cache/
baseUri        = /

[models]
metadata.adapter = "Memory"

I have change the modelsDir from ../app/models/ to /../app/models/ but still not working.

ANSWER FOUND:

Going to project root directory and type the command (instructions)

# phalcon all-models --directory /var/www/html/projec_name

I speficied the --directory which is the Base path on which project will be created.

Thank you colburton for helping me debug this problem. Much appreciated.

In the options array you pass to the builder you need to add 'modelsDir' with the correct path.

On this page you can find a video with the webtools. There is a tab for "Configuration", where you can set them.

It is also located in the config.ini under app/config

could you please give me an example of passing values to options array – Tuyen Nguyen Jun 13 '14 at 13:58
I have watched the video you mentioned, unfortunately, my Phalcon Web Tools doesn't have Configuration tab (please see screenshot in my question). What version of Phalcon Web Tools should I use? – Tuyen Nguyen Jun 13 '14 at 14:13
It is also located in the config.ini under app/config – colburton Jun 13 '14 at 14:16
colburton: I have added the config.ini to the question, please advice if I'm missing something. – Tuyen Nguyen Jun 13 '14 at 14:21
Where are your models actually located? – colburton Jun 13 '14 at 14:26
my models location: /var/www/html/phalconblog.northwind-traders.com/app/models – Tuyen Nguyen Jun 13 '14 at 14:31

I am using Phalcon 3. After generating a project with phalcon console tool I encountered this error.

There is an easy way out to resolve this issue. Change the following settings in app/config/config.ini if you have one.

[application]

controllersDir = app/controllers/

modelsDir = app/models/

viewsDir = app/views/

pluginsDir = app/plugins/

libraryDir = app/library/

cacheDir = ../cache/
