Hi CWDeveloper,

check for .htaccess in your CI folder and remove it.

[eluser]CWDeveloper[/eluser]
there is no .htaccess file yet i just downloaded and installed :S

Check the httpd.conf file in the WAMP directory, you should have something like this:

Code:

<Directory "C:/www">
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>

Allow from 127.0.0.1 is the permission to access the web server from localhost. If not present append it.

if u want an address http://localhost/ci

try to edit "your folder CI"\system\application\config\config.php

and replace to $config['base_url'] = "http://localhost/ci";

rename "your folder CI" to "ci"...
