HTTPS and Remove index.php on CodeIgniter - php

Question

I am using codeigniter framework,set .htaccess file to remove index.php and trying to enable HTTPS protocol for the server, and something happened.
HTTP:
Everything is okay, when I access http://www.example.com/controller/method or http://www.example.com/index.php/controller/method
HTTPS:
Everything is okay, when I access https://www.example.com/index.php/controller/method
Got 404 not found when I access https://www.example.com/controller/method
I think that is .htaccess file problem, it is look like htaccess file not working for HTTPS protocol.
.htaccess file of my site.
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|(.*)\.swf|forums|images|css|downloads|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php?$1 [L,QSA]
Is something wrong? thanks a lot.

Answer 1

Note: The SSL rewrite should happen before the index.php rewrite in your .htaccess file.
So, Don't do this setting (as we don't change anything in server apache config file.
)
AllowOverride All
just apply the Setting 2 it works.
I have faced the same issue and resolved it by adding
AllowOverride All
Setting 1:
FYI we have 2 config files.
Default Apache config (which runs with http)
SSL config (which runs with https)
Go to SSL config and add
<Directory "/var/www/html">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
**Setting 2:**The .htaccess file should be like this...
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
It worked for me.

Answer 2

First you remove $config['base_url] from your config file and put ''(blank) in your $config['index'] attribute ..
please set your .htaccess file like..
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Rewrite all other URLs to index.php/URL
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [PT,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 index.php
</IfModule>

Try this
I used this in one of my project. May its helps you
#AuthType Basic
#AuthName "restricted area"
#AuthUserFile /home/site_name/public_html/.htpasswd
#require valid-user
RewriteEngine On
#RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.site_name.com/$1 [R,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-z.]+)?.site_name.lk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.site_name.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-z.]+)?site_name\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule .? https://www.%1site_name.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|assets|files|robots\.txt)
# RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>
Note site_name in the above htaccess should replaced to your website name

you can try this, it works for my project.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|(.*)\.swf|forums|images|css|downloads|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]

if you want to http->https AND remove www AND remove index.php here's the solution:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=301]
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
