Router.php & "/"

I don't know if this has been solve or not, but I'll go ahead and post my solution for the same problem I had with my server.

File: Router.php
Method: _set_routing()
Line: 94 (without modification)

Code:

//Look for this:

        // Fetch the complete URI string
        $this->uri->_fetch_uri_string();
    
        // Is there a URI string? If not, the default controller specified in the "routes" file will be shown.
        if ($this->uri->uri_string == '')
        {
          ...

For some reason $this->uri->uri_string yields "/" using var_dump().
So the solution was pretty simple in my case.
All that needs to be done is do a check and empty it out.

Code:

// Fetch the complete URI string
        $this->uri->_fetch_uri_string();

        /* ***************************************
         * Solution
         * ***************************************
         */
        if ($this->uri->uri_string === '/') {
            $this->uri->uri_string = '';
        }
        
        // Is there a URI string? If not, the default controller specified in the "routes" file will be shown.
        if ($this->uri->uri_string == '')
        {
                  ...

By looking at that code, I advice not be tempted to do something I was going to do ... like this:

Code:

if ($this->uri->uri_string == '' || $this->uri->uri_string == '/')

The "if" condition really wants to make sure that ...

Code:

$this->uri->uri_string = ''

... in order to load the default controller. So all I did is play safe and just clear the value.

I hope this helps the OP or anyone that may have this problem in the future.
