My codeigniter project only loads the home page, the navigation links won't wok

Question

I made a codeigniter project locally. Then I upload it to my domain, but the only thing it loads is my home page and data from my database. The navigation doesn't work, even the pagination from my home page.

Everything works before I uploaded it. I don't see any php errors too. "ERROR 404 - PAGE NOT FOUND"

What do you think is the problem?

config.php

$config['base_url'] = 'http://thegamerx.net/';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';

.htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

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

</IfModule>

autoload.php

$autoload['packages'] = array();
$autoload['libraries'] = array('database','form_validation','pagination','session');
$autoload['helper'] = array('html','url','text','form','utility');
$autoload['config'] = array();
$autoload['language'] = array();
$autoload['model'] = array('blog_model');

$config['base_url'] = ''; that's my config. what shoud i update it to? — a.noob.webdev, Sep 17 '15 at 06:02
$config['base_url'] = 'http://thegamerx.net/'; still wont work. — a.noob.webdev, Sep 17 '15 at 06:08
Did you used `url helper` on links like `echo base_url();`?? — Indrasinh Bihola, Sep 17 '15 at 06:37
`$config['base_url'] = 'http://thegamerx.net/'; $config['index_page'] = ''; $config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';` These lines are from config.php and not from routes.php. Update this line `$config['index_page'] = '';` to `$config['index_page'] = 'index.php';` and update the question with routes.php — Scorpion, Sep 17 '15 at 06:40
sorry about that. thanks for correcting. i was double checking my routes at that time. anyways i'll try your solution. edit is done for the question — a.noob.webdev, Sep 17 '15 at 06:43

Set your base URL in config.php file like

$config['base_url'] = 'http://your_domain_name_here';

Wait, your site works with the www prefix. You probably have your config with the www on it. Anyway, adding a redirect rule to redirect the blank domain might help.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^thegamerx.net
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.thegamerx.net/$1 [R=301,L]

Be careful of 301 redirects though, they are permanent (browsers and search engines cache them). You might want to try with a 302 to make sure it works before going to 301.

config.php (inside Config Folder)

# DEVELOPMENT SERVER
$config['base_url'] = 'http://thegamerx.net';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';

Put this .htaccess on your very root folder, same level as application folder, system folder, and index.php

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on 
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
    RewriteRule .* index.php/$0 [PT,L]
</IfModule>

If you have access to our server configuration (usually under /etc/apache2/sites-available/your-site-config-file.conf), try to set the following:

<Directory /your/site/root/folder/>
   AllowOverride All
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
</Directory>
