default namespace not working in multi module until set a default module

Hi

I registered multi modules but controllers of modules not working until I set a default module in router.

and for example, I set a default module in router:

$router->setDefaultModule("frontend");

now other modules not working and throw an error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Phalcon\Mvc\Dispatcher\Exception' with message 'Modules\Frontend\Controllers\AdminController handler class cannot be loaded

although I set a router for 'admin':

$router->add('/admin', array(
    'module' => 'backend',
    'controller' => 'index',
    'action' => 'index'
));

You can put your routes in a test script like described here to see what parameters are processed according to the URI passed to your application. https://docs.phalcon.io/en/latest/reference/routing.html#testing-your-routes

The result is same as what described in error. it tries to run admin controller in Frontend module!

I'm running the following script, here: https://test.phalcon.io/r.php and it works properly, could you please update it to reproduce the problem?

<?php

$router = new Phalcon\Mvc\Router();

$router->setDefaultModule("frontend");

$router->add('/admin', array(
    'module' => 'backend',
    'controller' => 'index',
    'action' => 'index'
));

$router->handle('/admin');

//Check if some route was matched
if ($router->wasMatched()) {
    echo 'Module: ', $router->getModuleName(), '<br>';
    echo 'Controller: ', $router->getControllerName(), '<br>';
    echo 'Action: ', $router->getActionName(), '<br>';
} else {
    echo 'The route wasn\'t matched by any route<br>';
}

result:

Module: backend
Controller: index
Action: index

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Phalcon\Mvc\Dispatcher\Exception' with message 'Apps\Frontend\Controllers\AdminController handler class cannot be loaded

and I'm so confused. router handle returns true module but error says about other module

Is $_GET["_uri"] equals to /admin? Maybe is it caused by a forward?

'_uri' is undefined in GET.

Edit:

I put print_r($_GET) in ControllerBase of frontend module and _url (not _uri) is equal to '/admin'. it seems router wont work when application handled.

Is there any simple multi modules project with a controllerBase? This problem wasted all of my time!

After hours and hours I found this:

I added this route:

        $router->add('/admin', array(
            'module' => 'backend',
            'controller' => 'index',
            'action' => 'index'
        ));

now if I go to site.com/admin backend module called but for every sub addresses (admin/*) frontend (default) module called!

then I add this routes too:

        $router->add('/admin/:controller/:action', array(
            'module' => 'backend',
            'controller' => 1,
            'action' => 2
        ));

         $router->add('/admin/:controller', array(
            'module' => 'backend',
            'controller' => 1,
            'action' => 'index'
        ));

now every address in admin works perfectly and use backend module. but now the frontend site won't work correctly! (All addresses except /admin/* goes to index contrller of Frontend) and if I add this routes too:

        $router->add('/index', array(
            'module' => 'frontend',
            'controller' => 'index',
            'action' => 'index'
        ));

        $router->add('/', array(
            'module' => 'frontend',
            'controller' => 'index',
            'action' => 'index'
        ));

        $router->add('/:controller', array(
            'module' => 'frontend',
            'controller' => 1,
            'action' => 'index'
        ));

        $router->add('/:controller/:action', array(
            'module' => 'frontend',
            'controller' => 1,
            'action' => 2
        ));

now backend module (admin and admin/*) do not work!! :)) (frontend module called)

I'm so confused, please help me!

I tried evething, but not working.

When I call /admin/everythingelse I got:

Phalcon\Mvc\Dispatcher\Exception: App\Frontend\Controllers\AdminController handler class cannot be loaded

Oh god, found this issue.

When application handling a request, it passes namespace to the dispatcher (https://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon/blob/master/phalcon/mvc/application.zep#L267), but namespace will be empty if not defined in route and default will be used ($dispatcher->setDefaultNamespace('App\Modules\Frontend\Controllers');)

Is this a bug?
