Clistview in yii Undefined variable dataProvider

Question

I need a list view in my index.php. This is does not have any model so I used CSqlDataProvider for declaring the data provider and rendering it

Answer 1

Your itemView cannot be index. It has to be a partial view that will render the items in your list. $dataProvider is available when the list is being rendered but not when the items are being rendered hence the error.
