How to remove index.php from URL in CodeIgniter using .htaccess - php

Question

I know this question is asked many times before and I've gone through most of them already but couldn't find a solution. I've tried most of the answers given here, here and in CodeIgniter official documentation. And restarted apache each time. It didn't work for me. mod_rewrite is already enabled in my apache server.
Weird thing is, I've a working example for WAMP (in my laptop):
<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 /project/index.php
</IfModule>
It works perfectly in WAMP, but it doesn't work in LAMP. Any kind of help is appreciated.

Answer 1

Please use below code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
I have used this and it is working.

Try Below code in your .htaccess file
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /ROOT DIRECTORY NAME/
# Directs all EE web requests through the site index file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<Directory "/path/to/document/root/">
AllowOverride All
Allow from All
</Directory>

Answer 3

Just like this......
.htaccess inyour root directory with following code..
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
Set configuration in application/config.php as follows..
$config['base_url'] = 'http://domain_name';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';

Answer 4

I made it working with the help of following .htaccess code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|public|\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1
And I updated <Directory /var/www/> section of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file with:
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Require all granted
</Directory>
It solved all problems and now it works fine.

Answer 5

here it is my approach:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
And also in config.php replaces
$config['index_page'] = "index.php"
to
$config['index_page'] = ""
and also in the same file replace
$config['uri_protocol'] ="AUTO"
by
$config['uri_protocol'] = "REQUEST_URI"
