# Apr 18th 2017, 07:56 hmic I'm not sure about 2.x but there is an errorscontroller likely too, just not in your app but the cake libs dir probably, go figure! (if you copy it to your app dir you can change it, cake will pick it up, or just create a new one and extend this)
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:55 aiena ok
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:54 hmic check the default PagesController
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:54 aiena I think so. I am wondering if I should make a separate error controller for all error pages
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:54 hmic sure
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:53 aiena can you have a controller without a model
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:52 aiena if the original app devs did not care about conventions then there are almost no conventions (:
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:50 aiena nods
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:49 hmic and you get all the other good stuff too, like composer support which makes using third party libs a breeze
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:49 aiena hmic, yes I know of cakes conventions I was learning cake from cake 3 though. I applied that knowledge to cake 2 seeing what changed etc. Still learning as I work on this
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:49 hmic if you are starting new apps, don't base them on 2.x! especially the ORM got so much better with 3.x!
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 hmic will save you time from day one!
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 hmic thats not what we are saying. we are saying: learn cake and use it!
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 aiena but I like cake I'll make a few other apps in it as practice
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 aiena but I am pretty new to frameworks so a recode could also goof up
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:47 aiena hmic, I agree if I had the time I would recode the whole thing
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:46 hmic still admad is 100% correct: stop the crap! NOW
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:46 hmic so if you change the select master_name ... to select $prefix_master_table.master_name you get it "right" at least.
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 aiena hmic, honestly this is the first framework I'm actually using I am so used to PDO arrays
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 hmic the third array hold the columns you select
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 hmic for this to work your selected fields need to include the alias too
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 hmic the second array holds the alias of the table you are querieing
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 aiena hmic, nods, but I cant control conventions here inherited app
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 hmic the first array holds the results, one numeric index per row
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 hmic your resulting array would not look as weird
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 hmic aiena, if you would build a query that adheres to the cake conventions
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 adityapansari Any link to post data using jQuery. I have already that function in cakephp
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 admad yes use find('first') if you want single record
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 aiena if it is a select query returning only one row in cake 2 I can use `$model->find('first',[])` right ?
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 birdy247 morning
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 rrueco sorry for interruption :v:
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:42 aiena admad anyway I think for this particular trivial case I can use find
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:42 rrueco @admad : I made it working already by changing ...Form->create() INTO ...Form->create($user)
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:40 aiena I dont have control over what my ancestors decided to do with the app so I need to work with it
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:40 admad ok, hopefully someone else can help you
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:40 aiena so given that constrain how do I work with query ?
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:39 aiena so I cannot completely avoid query()
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:39 aiena there are some postgres server side functions I need to use
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:39 admad if your decision is to use query() i cant help you :slightly_smiling_face:
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 aiena I see
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 aiena I may decide to or not decide to use query is another decision
