Rewrite .htaccess rules fail. Any help? - El Forum - 11-20-2010
[eluser]Rubiz'[/eluser]
Hello guys!
Im trying to rewrite the URL, removing the index.php as I have seen in user guide, but it doesnt work.
Im using:
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]My CI folder is inside http://site.com/folder
When I upload the .htaccess file, the app seams to point to http://site.com/, I dont know why its happening...
Any idea?
Thanx!

Rewrite is always relevent to the folder you place the .htaccess file in.
If you're placing the .htaccess in '/' then it will go looking for '/index.php'. If you want:
http://site/
to load
http://site/folder/index.php
then the .htaccess needs to be:
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /folder/index.php/$1 [L]Or similar. Also remember than as it stands, this rule redirect *everything* to index.php - so any requests for css, js or img files will go to index.php. You'll need to specify certain folders / files for mod_rewrite to ignore if you want that type of request served properly.
I use:
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|image|style|license\.txt|robots\.txt|sitemap\.xml|script|user_guide)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?$1 [L]This means any request for '/image/*', '/style/* etc. are properly directed.
The 'RewriteBase' can be user if you're placing the .htaccess in asubfolder below root. You don't need to for CI unless you're running multiple installs on a single server.
