Hey all,

I have this configured in config.php:

Code:

$config['base_url']    = "http://hmlaw/";

Worked fine for a while. But as I added stuff to the site, now when I try to access it, I get a 404 Page Not Found error. This is running off my local host and I haven't changed the virtual host settings in apache (in fact I can access pages like http://hmlaw/home just fine). I temporarily removed everything in the routes to see if that was the cause, but even then I was getting 404. Not sure where else to look for problems.

Thanks for response.

Does your default controller still exist?

If you've delete the default controller you'll need to open the routes.php file and change:

Code:

$route['default_controller'] = "welcome";

to a controller that exists.

Thanks for the response. When user enters url, a method gets called that dynamically generates content from database for that url, so I had to check whether there was indeed a uri segment and if not redirect to a page:

Code:

elseif(!$this->uri->segment(1)){
                redirect('homes');
