htaccess works on home server but not on hosting account

Try this instead

Code:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php)
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

That should work fine.

Also, if you installed your site in a sub directory (ex: http://example.com/mysite) add "mysite" to the end of RewriteBase like this:

Code:

RewriteBase /mysite
