Question

I am new to Zend framework. I am updating a project which was developed by another person. I am getting an error like,

Generating config... PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception  
'Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Exception' with message 'Resource matching "autoloader" not found'

This kind of error comes from an improper bootstrapping.

In your Bootstrap.php there are a bunch of functions starting with _init, eg. public function _initAutoload(). All of these are automatically executed upon application launch, but if a particular order is needed, one can use $this->bootstrap('autoload'); in one of these functions, to make sure, that the resource _initAutoload() has been executed.

It is more than likely, that a function in Bootstrap.php is requesting a resource _initAutoload() which doesn't exist/has been renamed.
