Removing index.php in CodeIgniter using .htaccess file

You just need to paste this in your .htaccess file:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>    RewriteEngine on    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]</IfModule>

and make this alternation to your application/config/config.php file:

$config['index_page'] = '';

I have use following method, it is working perfectly in UBUNTU...!!

First of all verify that you have enabled mod_rewrite (you can verify using phpinfo()) in your index.php file.

IF DISABLED mod_rewrite then RUN: 1. sudo a2enmod rewrite 2. sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/defautjust replace "AllowOverride None" to "AllowOverride All" in Tag(<'Directory /var/www/'>)3. Then please run sudo service apache2 restart

Ok Good... Now in your root directory of Codeigniter -> Find .htaccess file, if not found then press ctrl+h , still not found then create a file .htaccess

In .htaccessPaste following code :

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>        RewriteEngine On        RewriteBase /ROOT DIRECTORY NAME/        # Directs all EE web requests through the site index file        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]</IfModule>

Ok finally just replace ROOT DIRECTORY NAME

DONT FORGOT TO REMOVE index.php from application/config/config.php fileMake that line like $config['index_page'] = '';

I use this htaccess for all my CodeIgniter projects. It supports subfolders too.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>    RewriteEngine On    RewriteBase /    #Removes access to the system folder by users.    #Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,    #previously this would not have been possible.    #'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]    #When your application folder isn't in the system folder    #This snippet prevents user access to the application folder    #Submitted by: Fabdrol    #Rename 'application' to your applications folder name.    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]    #Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,    #such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the    #request to index.php    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]</IfModule><IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>    # If we don't have mod_rewrite installed, all 404's    # can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.    # Submitted by: ElliotHaughin    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php</IfModule>
