edit : I solved my issue

on my controller, i use this to get my Model :  
$UsersTable = TableRegistry::getTableLocator()-\>get(‘users’);

With the ‘U’ of users set to uppercase, it’s now working like a charm.

on my dev computer, I have windows, and I use ubuntu for windows for terminal things, but look like he don’t care about case.

Hi here !

i have a strange thing happening :  
with the cakephp dev webserver (bin/cake server -p 8080) my app work fine

but on my webserver, it’s look like the the UsersTable.php is not called when I create an user.

actually, my UsersTable.php look like this : (I have set some die inside to check if the file is used, but nothing happen)

```
<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Model\Table;

die('potato');

use Cake\ORM\Query;    

use Cake\ORM\RulesChecker;

use Cake\ORM\Table;

use Cake\Validation\Validator;

use Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface;

use Cake\Event\Event;

use ArrayObject;

...

use Cake\Mailer\MailerAwareTrait;
...

public function beforeSave(Event $event, EntityInterface $entity, ArrayObject $options)

    { 

        die('POTATO');
...

```

But the register script work, my user is inserted into the table, but without any of the modification i set into the beforeSave and the ‘created’ & ‘modified’ fields are wrong (set to 0000-00-00…)

this UsersTable.php file was created with the ./bin cake bake model command

on my dev computer I use php PHP 7.2.24, on server it’s 7.3.13, and I even try with 7.2.26

I have no idea what’s going on

thanks
