Your first problem is that GoDaddy sucks for hosting.

The second is you'll need to modify your .htaccess to:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

For the "ultimate super-mega compatible awesome" .htaccess use:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

# Make sure directory listing is disabled
Options +FollowSymLinks -Indexes
RewriteEngine on

# NOTICE: If you get a 404 play with combinations of the following commented out lines
#AllowOverride All
#RewriteBase /wherever/pyro/is

# Restrict your site to only one domain
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [L]

# Keep people out of codeigniter directory and Git/Mercurial data
RedirectMatch 403 ^/(system\/pyrocms\/cache|system\/codeigniter|\.git|\.hg).*$

# Send request via index.php (again, not if its a real file or folder)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_php5.c>
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

</IfModule>

This will get CI up and running on pretty much anywhere.

Thank you for helping me out! I changed my server over to windows to try it out first. I didnt want to go to windows but I was running out of options.

Also, Im not sure if I fully understand everything you mentioned in the reply.

Where it says example.com is that where I put my domain name??

Sorry Im still a noob to CI.

Thanks

This is nothing to do with CI, just Apache interwebs stuff.

You can most likely throw that .htaccess file into your application without touching it, or just use the one specific line I posted which fixes your specific problem.

And forget about example.com, it's commented out

Ok so I added the code into my .htaccess folder and I am still getting the No input file specified.

Please HELP ME!!

I just want to start my website and have to get past this hurdle first
