Basically everything fails when moving online

I think you're right: the problem lies in your htaccess and the server set-up with the host rather than anything on the CI side.

Your htaccess looks reasonable to me but I'm most definitely not a expert on that side of things.

The only thing that is different really is that my sites have always been served out of the root rather than a folder in the root, in the way you have. My standard htaccess just looks like everyone elses:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %(REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

Anyway, glad it's all up and running.
