SOLVED Immediate Help Needed! I migrated my website and it doesn't work now.

[eluser]caglarutkuguler[/eluser]
I recently migrated my CI website to a new server using a different domain name. The problem is that although the home page is displayed, none of the links work. I always get the same error message and no additional message: 404 - File or directory not found.
The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

I searched the net but couldn't come up with any solutions. My URL: Click here to visit my CI Website

My .htaccess file:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ /index.php [L]
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|css|js|logs|sudokuwebyonetim|files|upload|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

Please help me to overcome this problem. Thanks.

On some servers you need to add a question mark after index.php, like this:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ /index.php [L]
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|css|js|logs|sudokuwebyonetim|files|upload|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

I did what you advised right away, but didn't work. Please help me.

Your links work if you include index.php in the url, so it's probably an htaccess problem. I'm not an htaccess expert, but this is the one I use:

Code:

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

You can try it with and without the question mark. Make a backup of your original version.

Thanks for the insight. At least you lit a light
I tried your .htaccess but didn't work.
Do you know any htaccess expert?

No, but I'm sure there are some on the forum.

SOLVED.

I changed my server. It was a Windoes server with PHP support. I switched to a LINUX server and it is working now.

Thanks for all your help. Especially thnx to teampoop and InsiteFX!

Ahh the Windows IIS server. rewrites are a bit more difficult on IIS. Linux Apache just has to have mod_rewrite installed
