.htaccess issues: No input file specified
I was beating my head up against this as well. I'm also installing Code Igniter.
The goocher was no RewriteBase. Here's my .htaccess:
DirectoryIndex index.phpRewriteEngine onRewriteBase /RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-fRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-dRewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|robots\.txt)RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
The Problem
I encountered a similar problem just now and unfortunately none of the answers in this thread helped:
Zend Framework was giving out "No input file specified.", but:
- The default RewriteBase was just fine, and adding
RewriteBase /
did not help - It's a shared hosting server and only FastCGI is available (no ability to switch to SuPHP)
- AcceptPathInfo was on
- There was no problem with URL rewriting in general on the server
So the answer came from the following site:https://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/55620/P15 [dead link](even though the host is not DreamHost).
The Solution
Apparently all you need to do is replace this line:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1
With this:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1
Problem solved.
This worked for me:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L] </IfModule>
After index.php
, the question mark is important!
