AllowOverride Not Working - CodeIgniter - php

Question

I'm attempting to figure out why it is that my .htaccess file isn't working - I'm assuming that I am somehow configuring my 000-default.conf incorrectly.
000-default.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName ****.********.me
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
.htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|css|img|js|libs|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
/html is a symlink to /www in my CodeIgniter project. I have removed 'index.php' from $config['index_page'], and the front page of the site loads without any issue. It is when I attempt to access any other page on the site that the issue arises (they will not load unless I add index.php to the beginning of each). I also ran sudo a2enmod rewrite, to no avail. I have also restarted the apache2 service during all of my attempts at fixing the issue. Any ideas?

If you just wanna remove index.php, then here is the steps to follow :
1- set $config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';
$config['index_page'] = '';
2- .htaccess file :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} 200
RewriteRule .* - [L]
