Separate CI in subfolder on live server?

If it were me I'd use a subdomain and point it at the sub-directory. Done.

If you can't use a subdomain, like subapp.mainapp.com, then you'll want to modify your .htaccess file to redirect or rewrite all requests to the subdomain to the sudomain's index.php. It shouldn’t be that hard. Show us what you've attempted to do with the .htaccess file.

Thanks Skunkbad, I think I generally get your point, but not being able to use a subdomain I cannot redirect or rewrite to it. What I've tried, among a lot of other things, is this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#RewriteRule .* /subapp/index.php?/$0 [PT,L]
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subapp/index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subapp/index.php?$1 [NC,L,QSA]

And all of the above without the preceding slash.

.htaccess is not a skill of mine, as you can probably see. But hey, google has all the answers, right (obviously not)?


I need to point to a subdirectory basically, therefore my question.
