Default URL behaviour

[eluser]bikuta[/eluser]
I read from the documentation that the default behaviour for URL is something like:
www.your-site.com/index.php/news

However this doesn't work instead I have to use this:
www.your-site.com/index.php?news

Anyone know what could be the reason for this?

What are your server specs?

[eluser]bikuta[/eluser]
Server has the following:
PHP 4.3.11
Apache 2.0.40
MySQL 3.23.58

Was there something you needed in particular?

Also I'm not using any .htaccess file.

[eluser]Code Arachn!d[/eluser]
I'm going to bet off hand that AcceptPathInfo is set to off on your server. So if you don't have access to your config file - then place the following in your .htaccess

Code:

<Files "index.php">
AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>

Code Arachn!d you are a genius!
It works now. Hopefully I won't run into any more problems.

Cheers.

Thanks for the vote of confidence - I wish I could take credit but I think CoolFactor was the one who found this originally...
