in config.php
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';
$config['index_page'] = '';
create .htaccess file with the following at your project's loctation
(for eg: /var/www/html/yourproject create .htaccess inside 'yourproject' folder )
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
add the below to your virtual host configuration file
<Directory "/var/www/html/yourproject">
Options All
AllowOverride All
Allow from all
</Directorey>
then restart apache

Follow this steps to remove index.php from url
1)Remove "index.php" from config.php file
$config['index_page'] = "";
2) Your .htaccess file should be:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
3)Some cases you also have to change this in config file
//find the below code
$config['uri_protocol'] = "AUTO"
//replace with the below code
$config['uri_protocol'] = "REQUEST_URI"

Simply use this in your .htaccess file
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>
