Zf2 Locale in URL and $this->url

Question

I am developing a web app on ZF2 Skeleton App base. I have played with lot of options but failed to get final headway.

I need to route the url as under:

http://myapp/
http://myapp/en/album

to AlbumController/indexAction. Also, links need to work as:

http://myapp/en/album/edit/1
http://myapp/en/album/delete/1

The code generates correct URLs but on clicking returns "404" error

My Application/module.config.php is as under:

---

        'router' => array (
                'routes' => array (
                        'home' => array (

My Album/module.config.php has the following router:

---

'router' => array (
                'routes' => array (
                        'album' => array (
                                'type' => 'segment',
                                'options' => array (
                                        'route' => '[:lang[/album[/:action[/:id]]]]',
                                        'constraints' => array (
                                                'lang'     => '[a-z]{2}',
                                                'action' => '[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*',
                                                'id' => '[0-9]+'
                                        ),
                                        'defaults' => array (
                                                'controller' => 'Album\Controller\Album',

                )
        ),

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Now this works fine.

Also, when I do call the $this->url('album',array('action'=>'edit', 'id' => $album->id)); in view file (.phtml), it does'nt return proper url as expected:

http://www.myapp.com/en/edit/id/1

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //Corrected code works for URL $this->url('album', array('action'=>'edit', 'id' => $album->id)) ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Appreciate your help in advance.

Answer 1

The issue was missing '/' in Album/module.config.php:

'route' => '[:lang[/album[/:action[/:id]]]

should have been:

'route' => '/[:lang[/album[/:action[/:id]]]

Thanks again to all for help.
