),

no link is showing up in gii....

any ideas??

Does this give the path expected:

echo Yii::getPathOfAlias('ext.gii-modeldoc-generator.gii');

[ghost]

gives:

/var/www/professionalworks/protected/extensions/gii-modeldoc-generator/gii

[cornernote]

Seems different to the path in your original post:

/var/www/html/protected/extensions

VS

/var/www/professionalworks/protected/extensions

[ghost]

sry,.. changed the path between posts....buts its the same for sure!

so it must be another problem....any hints?

I did the following:

1. Downloaded Yii 1.1.15 to /path/to/project/yii-1.1.15.022a51.

2. Download Gii ModelDoc Generator 1.2.5 to /path/to/project/protected/extensions/gii-modeldoc-generator.

3. Run yiic to create a web app:
   /path/to/project/yii-1.1.15.022a51/framework/yiic webapp /path/to/project

4. Add gii to /protected/config/main:

    'modules'=>array(
        'gii'=>array(
            'class'=>'system.gii.GiiModule',
            'password'=>false,
            // If removed, Gii defaults to localhost only. Edit carefully to taste.
            'ipFilters'=>array('127.0.0.1','::1'),
            'generatorPaths' => array(
                'ext.gii-modeldoc-generator.gii',
            ),
        ),
    ),

5. View in a browser at http://localhost/project/index.php?r=gii.

Everything worked correctly. I could see ModelDoc Generator at the bottom of the Gii list.

I uploaded the code here so you can see it:
