get rid of index.php

Here is my sample .htaccess file

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /openspire/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /openspire/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

Also make sure that your mod_rewrite is also enabled
