CodeIgniter uses a so called front controller, which handles all the calls and redistributes them according to the rest of the url. That file is index.php . Try calling http://localhost/codeigniter/codeigniter.../index.php to get the homepage.

Then, to get the blog controller you simply add /blog to the end, so you're calling http://localhost/codeigniter/codeigniter...x.php/blog .
