Hi,

i recently purchased a Macbook and i am having a little trouble getting my page links to work. I know its something to do with the way that i have set up my .htaccess file but cannot seem to get it to work and i keep getting 404 errors? I have set up MAMP as i localhost so the Mod_rewite should already be working?

This is what i have for my .htaccess

Code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

  RewriteEngine on

  RewriteBase /websites/mysite/

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,NC,L]

</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>

  # If we donít have mod_rewrite installed, all 404ís

  # can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.

  ErrorDocument 404 /index.php

</IfModule>

controller:

Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN">

&lt;html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;

&lt;link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="wallpaper-theme" href="css/stylesheet2.css"  /&gt;

&lt;link rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" title="carbon-theme"  href="css/stylesheet1.css" /&gt;

&lt;!--This script should appear below your LINK stylesheet tags --&gt;

Take out the if clauses in the .htaccess, if it does not work, we'll see further

Edit : comment the Error document while testing

hi,

I move the file directly in to the htdocs folder so the path is now htdocs/mysite and I changed the .htacess but still does not work!

Code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

  RewriteEngine on

  RewriteBase /

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,NC,L]

</IfModule>

[eluser]tomcode[/eluser]
What happens if You comment the IfModule clause :

Code:
# <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

  RewriteEngine on

  RewriteBase /

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,NC,L]

# </IfModule>

Edit : Try also :

Code:
# <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

  RewriteEngine on

  RewriteBase /mysite/

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,NC,L]

# </IfModule>

I still get the 404 with this url/mysite/about/index was not found on this server

Do You get CI's error or Apache's error ?

Does the app work with index.php ?

if the app is located at /htdocs/mysite, then put the .htaccess into the root folder of Your app:

/htdocs/mysite/.htaccess

if it still does not work, create an error in Your .htaccess, if You do not get a 500 server eror, then apache ignores Your .htacess file

My main controller with my homepage opens correctly with the url localhost:8888/mysite but when i try and link away i get a 404.

[eluser]tomcode[/eluser]
Please be more precise:

Do You get CI's 404 errors or Apache's 404 error ?

Do You mean with or without .htaccess ?

Have You set Your base_url in the config file to http://localhost:8888/mysite/ ?

Have you tried this?

its an apache apache 404 error.
with my .htaccess file in the mysite root folder as the following:

Code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

  RewriteEngine on

  RewriteBase /

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,NC,L]

</IfModule>

and by base url is set to localhost:8888/mystite/

Which URI protocol should i be using as i currenlty have it set to Auto?
