Open config.php and do following replaces

From:

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

To:

$config['index_page'] = "";

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

Add in .htaccess file

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]

Hope this will help you :

Options +FollowSymlinks -Indexes
RewriteEngine on
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]

and also set your config.php:

    $config['index_page'] = '';
    $config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/foldername/';

I had one doubt where should i place this htaccess file should i keep it in system folder or just outside application folder.

Pradeep Over a year ago

just outside your application folder means within your app folder

Joby Mathews Over a year ago

should i remove index.php from my site_url.

Pradeep Over a year ago

no need to worry about that just use base_url() or site_url() as it is

Try the below code to remove index.php from url, Make an htaccess file in the root folder and paste the below code in it.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

For remove index.php in the url you need to change the configuration. Change the following in your config.php file

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

TO

$config['index_page'] = "";

This will remove index.php from url.

If it helps anyone here, this problem drove me crazy and the solution for me was removing the capital letters from the project folder (it was originally localhost/working/CourseIgnite/).

so after many attempts at the problem I changed site to localhost/working/courseignite/

Then using the solutions that everyone posts worked. Mod rewrite on, change base url and index in the config, and used the below in the htaccess.

Just hope this helps as it was driving me bonkers.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /working/courseignite   
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]

Then in application/config

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

TO

$config['index_page'] = "";

and also in application/config

$config['base_url'] = "yourlocalhostip/working/courseignite/";
