404 Controller or its method is not found

CI is looking at the subdirectory to use as the controller (auto route - no routes), I even set up a route to try to direct it but it still looks at the wrong url segment https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...i-segments

Ex: mywebsite.com/ci4app/home/participantlogin

PHP Code:

Controller or its method is not found: \App\Controllers\Ci4app::home 


it thinks ci4app is the controller, it is really home

CI_VERSION = '4.3.6'

Using subfolder is difficult to configure.
I recommend you use subdomain (e.g., ci4app.mywebsite.com) instead of subfolder if you can.

It would take a bit to migrate, I was trying not to have to do that. It seems like there should be a setting in autoroutes where you can set a base_url something.

You need the subfolder ci4app in your document root of the web server.

It is/was although it was named differently ex ci-4-app-code/.
