CodeIgniter 4 routes not working properly - DanielTheGeek - 11-17-2020

I just got into CI4 from a CI3 background but I'm finding it difficult to get routes to display the appropriate view. Even though I have written the code in the controller properly to load a view, it always returns index.php no matter what instead of the correct view even when I enter a non-existent route. The 404 page doesn't show either. Please, what am I missing?

Here's my controller code:

Code:
<?php

namespace App\Controllers;

class Shop extends BaseController

{

    public function index()

    {

        return view('shop');

    }

}

Here's the result I get on the browser:

If you want it go to Shop then you need to create a route for it.

Did you setup your base url in app/Config/App.php

Tried that, didn't work still. It doesn't show the 404 page for non-existent routes too.

I noticed that the mod.rewrite module was disabled all this while by running "sudo a2query -m rewrite", I don't know if this helps. I'd enable the mod.rewrite module and see what happens.

SOLVED: I simply enabled mod.rewrite by running "sudo a2enmod rewrite" and everything works as expected now.
