how to remove index.php from url cakephp

Question

i have build a webapp on Cakephp 2.3 .. on my locaLhost all urls were fine.. i can access my urls like this

http://localhost/Cakephp

but now when i have uploaded the site on server in root folder ... i cant access my url like this

http://www.myweb.com

instead it can accessible like this

http://www.myweb.com/index.php/login

what i think that might be a problem is the .htaccess file in my app/webroot folder

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

I think this kind of index.php is causing the problem ..as i dont know about .htaccess so dont know how to remove it.

How do I get index.php out of my urls?

What you describe means that mod_rewrite isn't enabled - which also probably means that your host has disabled .htaccess files. You can't solve this without modifying your apache config, which on a shared host (are you on a shared host?) will almost certainly not be possible. — AD7six

So, it should be ok? You already have mod_rewrite?

If mod_rewrite is correctly loaded, .htaccess files are in place and index.php still appears in links then it is most probably problem with core.php framework configuration file.

Problem cause

In my case it was problem with App.baseUrl configuration option:

Configure::write('App.baseUrl', env('SCRIPT_NAME'));

Solving problem

Here is how I fixed that problem (and few others with redirects) by commenting out following line from core.php:

// Configure::write('App.baseUrl', env('SCRIPT_NAME'));

Check the mod_rewrite module is installed or not? if not kindly enable it in httpd.conf file.

Find the following line and remove # (means uncomment) in front of it.

 LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

Also don't forget to restart apache http service using following command:

 service httpd restart

Following are the steps to edit http.conf file from CPanel:

Log in to WHM/cPanel as the root user.
Open the "Service Configuration" section.
Open the "Apache Configuration" section.
Click "Global Configuration" to access the httpd.conf's settings, as displayed through cPanel.
Make your desired changes, then click the "Save" button. This saves the changes and then reboots Apache so that the changes are applied.
