CI, Xampp, and mod_rewrite - El Forum - 03-12-2009

Ok first I know there have been a few posts on this topic and I have tried the advice in them to no avail. I'm running Xampp on windows xp pro and using code igniter. One thing to note is my CI application is in a subdirectory. below are my config details.

config.php
$config['base_url'] = "http://localhost/n8/";
$config['index_page'] = "";

.htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /n8/

#Removes access to the system folder by users.
#Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,
#previously this would not have been possible.
#'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.

# all these paths will be ignored
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index\.php.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/pma.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/manager.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/images.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/css.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/javascript.*

# rewrite url (if it doesn't match the paths listed above)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /n8/index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

httpd.conf
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

<Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs">
Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

the following three things have been modified in every order to either have or not have the "n8" in them but no combination works... I keep getting a 500 internal server error.

$config['base_url'] = "http://localhost/n8/";
RewriteBase /n8/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /n8/index.php/$1 [L]

I've also tried combinations with the RewriteRule having no leading / before the n8.

I've followed the instructions in the wiki (http://codeigniter.com/wiki/mod_rewrite/) and even used the .htaccess that is available there.

I've also tried the suggestions in each of the following posts.

does anyone have any other suggestions?

This works for me on XAMPP with CI installation. I have vhost configured for XAMPP and its works great.

Code:
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

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

thanks for the response, I tried your code and it didn't seem to make a difference. and by that I mean I still get the index.php in my url, on the plus side my page still loads Smile

Ok. Just remove the index.php from the config file

Code:
$config['index_page'] = "";

Try removing the ReWriteBase. It's not necessary unless you have an alias set up in your vhosts file.

Uhm... Am I hallucinating, or do you have:

Code:
$config[‘base_url’] = “http://localhost/n8/”;

written in your htaccess file?

EDIT: I'm hallucinating. I saw:

$config[‘base_url’] = “http://localhost/n8/”;
RewriteBase /n8/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /n8/index.php/$1 [L]

and thought, Huh??

Have you tried to restart the Apache service? Sometimes the changes do not take effect after the first restart? (Do not use the XAMPP control panel)

Also double check:

Code:
$config['base_url']    = "http://localhost/n8/";

$config['index_page'] = "";

Have you commented out the last line to be sure it's none of the rewrite conditions that is causing the error?
