CakePHP Controller error

Question

Hi I am an absolute beginner for cakephp. I have created a controller tasks_controller.php and the class name is TasksController according to cake naming conventions as tasks is my table name in the database.I have put index action in this controller but i run this in browser, I get this error,

Missing Controller

Error: TasksController could not be found.

Error: Create the class TasksController below in file: app\Controller\TasksController.php

}

My url is : localhost/cakephp/tasks/index

I am quite new so don't know how to fix this problem. I am using cakephp 2.4.0.

Please help me in this.

TasksController is my controller name and file name is tasks_controller.php. Is something wrong in my naming conventions ?? — user2702406

Where did you find that it should be "tasks_controller.php"? Please post the link. The documentation sure does not. — mark

Create the class TasksController below in file: app\Controller\TasksController.php

You have called your file tasks_controller.php. Read the error carefully ;-)

The naming convention for controller files was updated in cakephp 2.0. Looks like you are using the old 1.x conventions
