Hi,

I'm having problems using query strings

http://somedomain.com/controller_name/ works fine

but

http://somedomain.com/controller_name?a=1&b=2 give 404 error, page not found

It works when I use

http://somedomain.com/index.php/controller_name?a=1&b=2

query strings are enabled in config.php

You have to use .htaccess to remove index.php from url. Have you done that?

Hi x3cu73,

Code:
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'PATH_INFO';
...
...
$config['enable_query_strings'] = TRUE;

Remember that, unless you are using .htaccess to remove index.php from url, this file is mandatory.
