mapping routes - El Forum - 09-23-2008

[eluser]paulcj2[/eluser]
my application allows many sites to work off the same database. the url for a specific site includes the site name as the second segment. Here is a sample url:
http://www.elsakfiberarts.com/page/elsakfiberarts/342
Which represents:
http://www.sitedomainname.com/function/sitename/page_id

I have looked at the tutorial on remapping the urls this way via the routes file,
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/general/routing.html
but don't see an example that applies. Please advise.

I tried

Code:
$route['page/([a-z]+)/(:num)'] = "page/index/$1/$2";

,
and the url

Code:
http://clickbasicsdemo.com/page/clickbasicsdemo/437

but it does not work on controller:

Code:
class Page extends Controller {

    function index($site_address, $art_id)

    {

        echo '<p>Site address: '.$site_address.'</p>';

        echo '<p>Article id: '.$art_id.'</p>';

    } //function

} //class

This url, however, does work:

Code:
http://localhost/clickbasicsdemo/index.php/page/clickbasicsdemo/437

How can I get it to work without index.php in the url?

I found:
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/general/urls.html
and tried adding to my .htaccess file

Code:
RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

However, that generated a 500 Server error.

I checked the apache/cong/httpd.conf file and it is set to allow all in the .htaccess file

Code:
AllowOverride All

Everything works fine on my production server. Somehow the .htaccess file still throws a 500 error on my XAMPP development server. Hmmmmmm.

I changed my .htaccess file on my development server to:

Code:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://localhost/clickbasicsdemo/index.php/$1 [L]

and now the links work there too. I'm done.
