Slim Framework always return 404 Error

Problem is solved!

My apache is actually normal, and the .htaccess file provided earlier also normal.

The clue is the URL that I used.Previously I used the invalid URL, thus it returned the 404 page error.I just realized it when I Tried to access the newer GET URL via browser with this one;

http://localhost/dev/index.php/getUsers/user1

and now that works!

I just realized it once I found these statements;

If Slim does not find routes with URIs that match the HTTP request URI, Slim will automatically return a 404 Not Found response.

If Slim finds routes with URIs that match the HTTP request URI but not the HTTP request method, Slim will automatically return a 405 Method Not Allowed response with an Allow: header whose value lists HTTP methods that are acceptable for the requested resource.

I found this post while googling "slimframework 404". The post led me to a solution to my problem.

The Problem

I set up a site with the Slim framework using Composer and create an index.php with the following example code form slimframework.com:

<?php$app = new \Slim\Slim();$app->get('/hello/:name', function ($name) {    echo "Hello, $name";});$app->run();

Then I try to access the page using http://localhost/hello/bob. I get back a 404 Page Not Found page.

I was able to get to access the page using http://localhost/index.php/hello/bob.

The Solution

I found the solution by looking at /vendor/slim/.htaccess (included w/ Composer Slim install) and the URL Rewriting section of the Slim framework documentation.

I added a copy of the /vendor/slim/.htaccess file to the same folder as my index.php file. The contents of the file are:

RewriteEngine OnRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-dRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-fRewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L] 

Now I can access the page using http://localhost/hello/bob.

You're right about to include the index.php on your file, but that happen because you're not working properly with your mod-rewritePlease check the following link:
