CI 3.1.2 Unable to load any controller but default

Hi all,

I've been using CI 2.0 for a long time, but now that I have a new project I'd like to move to CI 3.0. I've downloaded and installed CI 3.1.2 and the welcome controller loads properly if I write:

http://example.com

Sadly, if I try to load it this way it fails:

http://example.com/index.php/welcome

So does all controllers I've tried to create. For instance I've created the following controller in the application/controllers/Test.php file:

Code:

<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

    class Test extends CI_Controller
    {

        public function index()
        {
            echo "OK";
        }

    }

It doesn't load using:

http://example.com/index.php/test

But if I change default controller from "welcome" to "test" then it returns OK properly if I browse to:

http://example.com/

Also, if I run it from the CLI it works properly and again returns OK, no matter if is set as default of not:

Code:

php index.php test

I have tried to change $config['uri_protocol'] to QUERY_STRING and PATH_INFO without succes, I've tried to change base_url so its value is 'http://example.com/' instead of empty.

I hope someone can help :-)

change
public function index()
to
public function test()

change
public function index()
to
public function test()

No.

change
public function index()
to
public function test()

That would convert the function in the class constructor AFAIK. I have tried anyway and nothing changes.

Thanks for trying though

I have just done the same using a fresh install of CI 3.1.2. It happens the same, http://example.com/ loads the welcome controller but http://example.com/index.php/welcome returns "not found"

What do you use as webserver and how is it connected to php?

eg. apache and php-fpm

---

make a script eg. test.php

Code:

<?php
var_dump( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
var_dump( $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
var_dump( $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']);

call it like "test.php/welcome" and post the result

Because the Users Guide states that:

It should work on 5.3.7 as well, but we strongly advise you NOT to run such old versions of PHP, because of potential security and performance issues, as well as missing features.

call it like "test.php/welcome" and post the result

I've tried this and I also get a not found error, but if I just run test.php it returns data in the REQUEST_URI value (QUERY_STRING is an empty string and PATH_INFO is NULL).

It seems php is connected cause it runs (and otherwise the welcome controller won't work either) but there must be something in the Apache configuration, I'll check. Thanks I hope this leads me through the good track :-)
