I am trying to remove 'index.php' from the URL. I have tried by making

$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';

as

$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';

and

$config['index_page'] = 'index.php';

as

$config['index_page'] = '';

and even tried with putting

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|[Javascript / CSS / Image root Folder name(s)]|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /project/index.php/$1 [L]

in .htaccess file, but it not working me. Can anyone please tell me where I am going wrong? Thanks in advance..

Reset to default

Given that you've told me you're using Ubuntu...

  1. Use the .htaccess configuration provided by Ayman.
  2. Open a terminal and type sudo a2enmod rewrite to enable mod_rewrite on your machine.
  3. Open 000-default with sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default and change the first occurence of AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All

Then restart apache with sudo service apache2 restart.

Also use: $config['index_page'] = '';

There are 3 steps to remove index.php

1.Make below changes in application/config.php file

$config['base_url'] = 'http://'.$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].'/Your Ci folder_name';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';

2.Make .htacces file in your root directory using 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]

3.Enable rewrite mode

i. First, initiate it with the following command:

a2enmod rewrite

ii. Edit the file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default

change the AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All.

iii. Restart your server with the following command:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Got the answer, I just had inserted the following code in my .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .* index.php/$0 [PT,L]

and made $config['index_page'] = '';

in config.php

This is the .htaccess file I always use. Works for me:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  DirectoryIndex index.php
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|css|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteBase /project/
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>

And should I keep the .htaccess file in application folder or the main project folder along with the application folder?
Keep it in the main project folder
It is still taking index.php
The .htaccess file should go in the root of your project folder. Right next to application and system; not inside.
Change $config['uri_protocol'] back to AUTO.
