Still with index.php problem

[eluser]tpiscotti[/eluser]
Hi Rey,

I've been having the exact same problem -- on both my Windows AND Mac environment actually. Cannot get this to work at all on either and I too have been following many suggested solutions from the forums as well as from suggested setup in the User Guide.

I followed the 3 main steps exactly as you posted them for the .htaccess file, my config.php file and also verified that mod_rewrite is most definitely enabled (I usually enable this right away whenever I set up Apache on a machine). Everything works fine if I upload these files to my remote host so it's definitely a local environment settings issue.

Here is a profile of my Windows development environment if it helps (I'm away from my Mac at the moment):
- Windows XP Pro
- Apache 2.2.11
- mod_rewrite IS ENABLED (I always have this enabled). The preceding hash mark is removed from the appropriate LoadModule line within httpd.conf. If there is another setting I should be aware of, please let me know.
- All statements of AllowOverride within httpd.conf are set to All
- PHP 5
- MySQL 5.1
- CodeIgniter 1.7.0, index.php and the /system folder of core files are copied to a test site area on my computer at: C:\Apache\htdocs\blogtest

Everything works fine if I include index.php in the URL (as it should) but I would like to removed this and to force a .html suffix.

If you (or anyone else reading this) need additional info for me, please feel free to let me know.

Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide!!

Best,
Tony
