404 Not Found $route['default_controller']

I have uploaded my site to my server and when I input http://www.mysite.com/index.php I get a CI 404. I have set my $route['default_controller'] to 'home'. When I navigate to http://www.mysite.com/index.php/home/ I get the page? why is the default not working?

Try the various settings for

Code:

$config['uri_protocol']    = "AUTO";

in config.php.

'REQUEST-URI' is usually a good option.
