CAKE 5.0, controller and table class alias, component

Need Help
1

I upgrading to v5 and have problem… in controller call component:

$cart = $this->Cart->read('order');

and i get error:

Table class for alias `Cart` could not be found.

In version 4 its works… i define components in AppController.php

$this->loadComponent('Cart');

Thanks for the advice

Can’t reproduce that.

What I did:

  • bin/cake bake component Cart
  • Check that $this->loadComponent('Cart'); is present inside the src/Controller/AppController.php initialize method
  • Add a method inside src/Controller/Component/CartComponent.php
  • Call it inside another controller via $this->Cart->test();

Everything works as expected.

Also I am unable to find your specific error message

Table class for alias `Cart` could not be found.

in the source code.
So please post the whole stacktrace of your error.

I found where the problem is.
I do have CartController.php

    public function initialize(): void
    {
        parent::initialize();

        $this->Users = $this->fetchTable('Users');
    }

So if I have the same name and component, it is probably looking for the name of the table in CartController.php

If I call the component in a controller other than CartController.php, it works.

if add $this->Cart = $this->loadComponent('Cart'); to initialize method to CartController.php then its work…

    public function initialize(): void
    {
        parent::initialize();

        $this->Cart = $this->loadComponent('Cart');

        $this->Users = $this->fetchTable('Users');
    }
