Big Problem! Help Fast! Primary Controller Not Working

[eluser]macleodjb[/eluser]
I've got a big problem and i can't figure it out. I've been working locally on my computer on my website, i just uploaded everything to my server and everthing works fine except for the main controller.

This is my main controller coming right from www.example.com

Code:

<?php

class Home extends Controller {

    function Home()
    {
        parent::Controller();
        session_start();
            
    }
    
    function index(){
    redirect('home/employer');
    }
    
    function employer()
    {
        $data['page_title'] = "";
        $data['page_desc'] = "";
        $data['page_keywords'] = "";
        $this->load->view('home/index', $data);
    }
    
    function freelancer()
    {
        $data['page_title'] = "";
        $data['page_desc'] = "";
        $data['page_keywords'] = "";
        $this->load->view('home/freelancers', $data);
    }
}

everything on the server is fine. the pages and controller are both uploaded and in the correct spot on the server. I'm getting a 404 error on both pages but my URL is redirecting to the proper places. HELP
