Let me inform you this first. This application is working pretty fine on live server currently, however we needed to move it to a different server with a different domain.
Issue is: It gives 404 error on every other page except for index. Loading through index.php works fine.
For an example:
www.test.com/main/login //This gives 404 error
www.test.com/main/index.php/login //This loads fine
Because everything is working fine currently, I made changes only in $config['base_url'] and in database config file. There have been no other changes in any of the files.
Also, this solution provided by somebody in a different questions is already tried out and this doesn't work. Solution is to create .htaccess file with below code & setting $config['index_page']='' :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
Current server is VPS & provider is GoDaddy. New server is Shared hosting and provider is GoDaddy. I'm not getting the root cause of this happening, can somebody point out to the possible solution?
EDIT
I'm attaching a screenshot for an error, it's not typical 404 error page. In case this helps.
For Godaddy, you need to alter this 2 things.
In your .htaccess file, replace
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
With the following:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
Then is your application/config/config.php :
$config['index_page'] = '';
Both this changes should help you resolve your issue.

I have four identical pages that only differs in some identifiers but the logic is very much the same. All of them works on localhost. Three of those pages works okay on live server, but one of them returns a 404 for some reasons I can't understand.
I use XAMPP 3.2.2 and Sublime for developing it on local. I moved it to GoDaddy Deluxe Linux for live. My Codeigniter version is 3.1.10.
I already tried answers from most of the questions on StackOverflow:
All controller and model names' first letters are capitalized in the file name and inside the file.
All of the .htaccess codes on here: https://github.com/tasmanwebsolutions/htaccess_for_codeigniter
I have two .htaccess files, one of them is inside the application folder, and one is outside. I don't know if that's confusing the system? But I have another website on a different hosting that has the same .htaccess files and they're working okay. And anyway, if that's confusing the system, why does it only affect one of the four identical pages?
.htaccess outside application folder
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
.htaccess inside application folder:
<IfModule authz_core_module>
Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !authz_core_module>
Deny from all
</IfModule>
All of the controllers of the four files has this up top:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
//session_start(); //we need to call PHP's session object to access it through CI
class Question1 extends CI_Controller
{
and the rest is normal code stuff that are working on three of those four files.
In config. php I have:
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';
and base_url is great.
Models and views are okay, as far as I can see, and the rest of the website is functioning alright with the included .htaccess. My routes are working okay, as well.
I'm so lost right now.
PS. I have a custom 404 page. When I input assessment.com/index.php/question1 it shows that custom 404 page. But when I open assessment.com/question1 it shows codeigniter's own 404 page (and not my custom one, for some reasons). I think that tells something, I just don't know what.
EDIT
Here's my routes.php:
$route['default_controller'] = 'home';
$route['404_override'] = 'Error404';
$route['translate_uri_dashes'] = TRUE;
I opted not to do
$route['question1'] = "Question1";
in routes because it doesn't change anything.
Check your APPLICATION ENVIRONMENT mode. You can find it on your project root_folder/index.php and at line no. 57.
define('ENVIRONMENT', 'production');
Change the ENVIRONMENT mode into the development mode, that is
define('ENVIRONMENT', 'development');
Then refresh your applications again. If you see CodeIgniter default error you can understand your CodeIgniter application are running ok and check out the error.If it doesn't show any error then your .httaccess has any error. I solved it my 404 error with this code, you can check this out.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^asset.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
Answering this for the others who might come across the same problem.
Okay so user Don't Panic suggested I echo just "question x" in the problematic controller, and when I did that, the 404 error went away and it echoed the "question x." So definitely it's my controller that has the problem and not my routine or .htaccess files.
Now this controller is designed in such a way that it calls first an ID from the database before it shows anything. After I echoed "question x" I realized that the ID it is calling from my database has a value of zero. So, unsurprisingly, from the controller's point of view, the page doesn't exist! Hence the 404.
I've fixed it now by updating that table from my database and giving the ID a value it should already have had in the first place.
In 2016/17 I had XAMPP working good but then I had one year rest and needed to reinstall Windows 10 and when I attempted to open the control panel it would not open.
I then decided to download the latest version of XAMPP and also CodeIgniter. I have transferred all of the files from the old version to the new version. I am able to open http://localhost/phpmyadmin and I have created a database with a table similar to that I had before. But if I enter http://localhost/intro I get the result of Object not found! - Error 404. I have checked routes.php and everything appears OK and I've also placed the Intro file (which is simple text without reference to the database) in the root folders of Controllers & Views, but get the same result. I have also checked config.php and changed $config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/'; to $config['base_url'] = 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/localhost/'; but again it made no difference. I also changed the port number in the Control Panel to 8080 but again made no difference.
I guess by being able to open http://localhost/phpmyadmin that indicates Apache is working OK.
Can somebody tell me where else I can check?
If you are sure xampp is running perfectly then add .htaccess file in the main directory of the intro, add the following code into it:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .* index.php/$1 [PT,L]
and try again. If you got any error let me help you.
My old system had a .htaccess file and there was not one in my new system. I copied & pasted that file and everything works good now.
My file contained the following.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
I copied a fully functional CodeIgniter app into a new server, updated the config.php base url, and setup all database parameters accordingly.
An interesting problem I'm having is that the new install (in new server) returns a 404 for all controllers I try to access. However, when navigating to the base URL, my default controller welcome.php defined in routes.php is rendered fine on the browser.
$route['default_controller'] = "welcome";
This suggests to me that CI is running OK but there may be some other routing issue I'm not figuring out.
My .htaccess is
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
which works fine on the other server.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?
Is your apache directory configuration set to AllowOverride All?
I extended the CI_Controller and made my own controller to be extended.
Now everything works fine in localhost (xampp) but when I copied the files over to my web server, I get 500 internal server error which is quite useless. Odd to me is the fact, that I get internal server error instead of codeigniter generated error.
Things I have tried so far:
1) tried libraries folder instead of core for MY_Controller
2) I have had problem with server only accepting lowercase file names so I tried my_controller and changing config file prefix, main.php extension and so on.
Both of these seems like useless tries anyways, cause I didn't get error saying it can't be found or something similar.
When I change my main.php controller to extend CI_Controller, everything works fine.
I know I haven't provided much information, but I have no idea what to provide. Again, it works in localhost.
Thanks for any input you might have.
Try changing your config.php to.
$config['index_page'] = '';
and the .htacces of the site to:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
I've just transferred a project of mine to the web and I have a file called "circlecrop.php" that's located in the root directory of where all the CodeIgniter files are. This php script basicall just makes any image with circlecrop.php?path=img cropped to a circle, very simple and it works fine locally.
This works perfectly fine locally.
I'm getting the following error:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden)
I can't access circlecrop.php directly even though I've got it set to 777, I haven't anything set within my routes in CodeIgniter I'm not sure it's needed?
Complete htaccess file
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|circlecrop\.php|images|js|profile_pictures|fonts|stylesheets|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
I've done some searching and can't seem to find anything, my only thought is that I need a way to directly access circlecrop.php and it will work. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Edit: I've updated the url that has the errors, maybe that's more helpful.
You need to include if your website placed on root directory
RewriteBase /
If it place in test folder for example use this.
RewriteBase /test/
simply use site_url() on every link and action instead of base_url().
This worked for me:
I replace .htaccess content by the following:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index.php|application/themes|application/theme_path|images|assets|robots.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
Update your base_url according to your live host in config.php
$config['base_url'] = 'SET YOUR SITE URL HERE';
config.php is located in /application/config
