Remove "index.php" from Codeigniter .htacceess

Question

I've been working in Codeigniter for a few days now & everything is going very well, accept I cant for the life of me get rid of the index.php in the url (from localhost/index.php/controller to localhost/controller).

I'm using CIs default index.php.

rewrite is enabled in apache.

$config['index_page'] = "";
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';

(Though I've tried the other four settings for URI)

.htaccess looks like this.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteBase /

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

  <Files "index.php">
    AcceptPathInfo On
  </Files>
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
  ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>

I've tried the answers here and here

help would be wonderful

Thank you

P.S. I'm working in a sub-domain if that matters.

You wrote `indew` instead of `index` - could this be your problem? — Scott Arciszewski, Mar 22 '14 at 20:54
Typo in my post but not the actual file, I checked but thank you — Deonoway, Mar 22 '14 at 21:05

Put the following rules to .htaccess file,

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

If the above lines don't work then you need to open your CI config file application/config/config.php

In that find the following line

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

Change that to:

$config['index_page'] = '';

If that does not work either then try changing uri_protocol to auto in config:

$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';

I did all that, (look at what I posted above). Still not working — Deonoway, Mar 22 '14 at 20:56

In .htaccess this could be a problem
RewriteCond $1 !^(indew\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
and make sure that that the rewrite module is enabled How to enable mod_rewrite for Apache 2.2
Or for the RewriteRule line, try changing it to this

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

(the / before the index.php)

I just double checked, rewrite mod is enabled. The typo was in my post not the actual file, but all the same I tried removing the line all together, still nothing... – Deonoway Mar 22 '14 at 21:03
