Since 4 days trying to solve this: set up friendly urls in dreamhost getting a 404

Code:

$config['uri_protocol']    = "REQUEST_URI" or $config['uri_protocol']    = "PATH_INFO";

Easy it down a bit. The same goes for the htaccess rules you're using...

Start out with this rewrite rule:

Code:

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

And now try all the different protocols, one by one!

Code:

| 'AUTO'            Default - auto detects
| 'PATH_INFO'        Uses the PATH_INFO
| 'QUERY_STRING'    Uses the QUERY_STRING
| 'REQUEST_URI'        Uses the REQUEST_URI
| 'ORIG_PATH_INFO'    Uses the ORIG_PATH_INFO
|
*/
$config['uri_protocol']    = "AUTO";
