File Not found error

Think about it: Without mod_rewrite rules, Apache is going to look for a folder named 'controllerfile_name' and 'function'

An .htaccess file with mod_rewrite rules typically sets it up so that apache loads the index.php front controller if it can't find the URL itself. With no mod_rewrite rules, you need to first send the request through index.php manually, just as the User Guide explains: http://serverIP/codeignitor/index.php/controllerfile_name/function
