Default Route not working - strange !? - El Forum - 01-21-2008

Hey everybody,
I just built my first project with CI and everything worked fine on my local development-environment. Now I've moved the project to my server, for client-review. Now I'm experiencing a problem. The default-route doesn't work anymore.
http://aem.tim-adler.com (doesn't work)
http://aem.tim-adler.com/page (works)
In routes.php I have
Code:
$route['default_controller'] = "page";and a .htaccess-file which looks like this
Code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
# If we don't have mod_rewrite installed, all 404's
# can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.
# Submitted by: ElliotHaughin
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>I tried debugging the HTTP-Request, but this doesn't make any sense either. Would you guys have any advise?

I investigated this further:
This works
http://aem.tim-adler.com/index.php/
however, this does not
http://aem.tim-adler.com/index.php
What could be the reason for that?!
I don't get it, plz help!

Found it: The Apache "DirectoryIndex" was not set to set "index.php"

What do you have as the base_url in the config file?
Does it have the ending slash included? Found out it works best for me that way.

Yep, I have that set. But I just found something out through code-reading:
The method "_get_uri_string" in the Routes-Class hands out something totally senseless in my environment. The path-info that it creates are comming from a totally different page on my server...
e.g. I'm requesting http://aem.tim-adler.com/
and _get_uri_string hands out something like /vista-mac-windows/ which is a Python-path from another page on that server....totally weird!
What is going in here?! This looks like a bug...

I'm self-replying all the time here, cause I wanna make this transparent for other users:
I now found a hopefully relyable fix: Setting the $config['uri_protocol'] to "REQUEST_URI"; seems to have fixed it...

Are you on windows? I did see something somewhere about that being a fix for windows.

Nope that system showing the problem is a SUSE 9.3 Linux with Apache 2 and PHP 5.2.5!
