It should work fine, why don't you try installing it?
When a problem occurs, then come back here with details.

Firstly, are you using Apache web server?

[eluser]InsiteFX[/eluser]
For one on widows there needs to be a change!

Code:

# this is wrong!
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

# on windows it is.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.so>

# also you may need to change this.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /myprojectname/index.php/$1 [L]

#to this.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /myprojectname/index.php?/$1 [L]

Any windows <IfModule> type shoud end with .so not .c

Yes wyred I am using Apache web server

I develop locally on a Windows XP box running Apache/2.2.14 (Win32) PHP/5.2.6.

My htaccess file reads as:

Code:

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml text/javascript application/javascript text/css
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|rss-feed\.php|robots\.txt|phpinfo\.php|favicon\.ico|apple-touch-icon\.png|index_header\.php|index_navjavaphp\.php|index_archivenavjavaphp\.php|images|css|CSS|js|tmp|_Counters|Collections)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

The RewriteCond line just lists all of the files/directories excluded from he rewrite.

This is the same htaccess file used in the production environment.

I have the site configured to remove the index.php from the URI, so you also need:

Code:

$config['index_page'] = "";

My code is configured to auto-detect if it's running under Windows (dev) or Linux (production) with:

Code:

if (stristr(PHP_OS, 'WIN')) {
  $config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';
} else {
  $config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';
}

Any other environment-specific code can be checked the same way.

For instance, I assume that if the OS is Windows, it's my local dev box and configure logging threshold and other values accordingly. If the OS is not Windows, I assume it's the production environment.

Full Disclosure:
At the moment, my old site has ported over to CI2.0 and runs on my Windows dev box fine, but only routes to the default controller/index in my production Linux environment.
