Removing index.php in Codeigniter

[eluser]drewdin[/eluser]
Sorry for the confusion,

I started using my windows machine an hour or so ago, when i got to work. since I sync my stuff through dropbox I tend to develop from both places. My MAC and my windows machine. I wont be able to test the MAC until later tonight. I just figured f I could get it going with my windows machine, i would be good.

I'll wait until i get home and re-run the tests. If you will be on later tonight, I would appreciate the help.

Also, i noticed if I comment out the

Code:

#RewriteBase /CodeIgniter/

nothing happens, the main page loads fine.

is anyone around to help? I have been struggling with this for a few days...

Sorry, I'm out of ideas. I'm just hoping that another Mac user will be so kind as to post their .htaccess file.

However, I would suggest that you add your site to your hosts file, and then you can add a virtual host for your Web site, so that you don't have to use RewriteBase anymore.

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /path/to/your/site
    ServerName codeigniter.localhost
    <Directory "/path/to/your/site">
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

There are differences between the two servers, but this will allow you to specify a different .htaccess file for each, since I doubt one will work on both Windows and your Mac.

Mac:

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    # ...
    AccessFileName .htMaccess
</VirtualHost>

Windows can just use the default .htaccess file.

Have you changed the server's config file to enable "AllowOverride"

If you use apache server, you need to set all "AllowOverride all" in file "conf/httpd.conf"

You don't need to make it that open. You just need to allow FileInfo.

Code:

AllowOverride FileInfo

Only enable the mod_rewrite in Apache.it will be solve.

Hi, I have the same problem also, but I am using the Internet Information Services (IIS) as my local web server. How can I also remove the index.php in my URL, I am very new in CodeIgniter. Thanks.

Attached is the page with the error. I also did what's on this topic.

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
That's occour because you are not defining the root path CodeIgniter on your base URL

I'm using this as root .htacces, please try again

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /CodeIgniter/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|js|img|css|captcha|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /CodeIgniter/index.php/$1 [L]
