Zend OSX, and a "." added to context path

Question

I downloaded and unpacked the latest version of Zend Framework, onto OSX (10.6) (am also running webserver with XAMPP, but I added the include_path change to both XAMPP and OSX path, but this is all command line so I dont think the php compiler is using the XAMPP install)

I try to create a project and get the following: (note that i am replacing part of the path with "----" just for the purpose of privacy)

sh-3.2# zf create project testProject

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_Exception' with message 'File "Zend/Tool/Project/Context/Zf/./AbstractClassFile.php" does not exist or class "Zend_Tool_Project_Context_Zf_._AbstractClassFile" was not found in the file' in /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Loader.php:99 Stack trace:

0 /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Tool/Project/Context/Repository.php(88): Zend_Loader::loadClass('Zend_Tool_Proje...')

1 /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Tool/Project/Context/Repository.php(79): Zend_Tool_Project_Context_Repository->addContextClass('Zend_Tool_Proje...')

2 /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Tool/Project/Provider/Abstract.php(87): Zend_Tool_Project_Context_Repository->addContextsFromDirectory('/Volumes/----/...', 'Zend_Tool_Proje...')

3 /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Tool/Framework/Provider/Repository.php(187): Zend_Tool_Project_Provider_Abstract->initialize()

4 /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Tool/Framework/Client/Abstract.php(128): Zend_Tool_F in /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Loader.php on line 99 sh-3.2#

Note the period after "Context_Zf_"

I've narrowed it down to this block of code:

File: /Volumes/----/----/z/library/Zend/Tool/Project/Provider/Abstract.php

public function initialize()
{
    // initialize the ZF Contexts (only once per php request)
    if (!self::$_isInitialized) {

        // load all base contexts ONCE
        $contextRegistry = Zend_Tool_Project_Context_Repository::getInstance();
        $contextRegistry->addContextsFromDirectory(
            dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/Context/Zf/', 'Zend_Tool_Project_Context_Zf_'
        );
        $contextRegistry->addContextsFromDirectory(
            dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/Context/Filesystem/', 'Zend_Tool_Project_Context_Filesystem_'
        );
        // determine if there are project specfic providers ONCE

Specifically "dirname(dirname(FILE))" is echoing as "."

if I wrap the block with an 'if (dirname(dirname(__FILE))!=".") { … } ', then I don't get that error, but I get another:

sh-3.2# zf create project testProject

An Error Has Occurred
Context by name applicationDirectory does not exist in the registry.

I tested on my Mac and it works fine. Have you tried to restart you xampp server, I don't really know how it works as I use Apache & PHP already installed versions not a "AMP pack". Maybe it's a problem with the php.ini include_path which has not been reloaded.

It's clearly a problem with the path as it don't succeed to build the class name :

"Zend/Tool/Project/Context/Zf/./AbstractClassFile.php"

the dot should not appear here. Can you share you PATH variable from the terminal and your include_path from your php.ini.

oddly enough, I can't find the correct php.ini file to change. I have changed 5 of them now, and nothing shows a change. I am running XAMPP, but am using terminal for running the zf command. 'which php' and 'php -i | grep php.ini' both show something outside of my XAMPP install. I think the best option now is to kill xampp and maybe try to native install for Zend server. – Mondo Mar 08 '11 at 20:26

Sadly the solution was to install zend server community edition, and have that take care of everything for me. For anyone else on OSX going this route, check out: http://cmorrell.com/webdev/installing-zend-server-zend-framework-on-os-x-291

includes the steps for enabling CLI support.
