How to remove "index.php" in codeigniter's path
(27 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I am using codeigniter 3.0 and xampp. When I try to reference a page in xampp with codeigniter it goes to the xampp index page.
Here is my .htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# !IMPORTANT! Set your RewriteBase here and don't forget trailing and leading
# slashes.
# If your page resides at
# http://www.example.com/mypage/test1
# then use
# RewriteBase /mypage/test1/
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
# If we don't have mod_rewrite installed, all 404's
# can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.

ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>

You could try http://localhost/project/index.php/route-name But if your trying to do it without index.php try my example below.
Disclaimer: I do not know what versions of system/server you are running so could show a different result this is just example to help you along.
Create a file in main directory called .htaccess Do not touch the htaccess in application folder
Options +FollowSymLinks
Options -Indexes
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
I use the same htaccess on my live server no issues Hosting Provider http://www.arvixe.com/9875-0-1-370.html
Remove index.php from config.php $config['index_page'] = '';
Also if you have any links that include index.php remove that also example.
base_url('index.php/route-name');
Change To
base_url('route-name');
Or
site_url('index.php/route-name');
Change To
site_url('route-name');
If you are still having issue check your routes.php make sure you have configured your routes in application/config/route.php $route['name'] = "route-name/index"; check your name of controller.
In codeigniter 3.0 you also need to have the controller capitalized. example Welcome.php
If that does not work I found this https://github.com/riwakawebsitedesigns/htaccess_for_codeigniter has about 5 examples you could try depending on your server / OS-system
