.htaccess to remove .php extenssion in not working

Question

Before posting here I've tried solutions URL1, URL2 but not fixed yet. My .htaccess code like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

In my application $_GET and $_POST used and file structure in htdocs like this:

shopping ->(main folder) css(folder) images(folder) js(folder) .htaccess file1.php file2.php : : file9.php

So how I can get rid from removing .php in URL

Answer 1

1. Check that .htaccess is applied in the first place — see here;

2. Make sure that your configuration allows overriding at least FileInfo in .htaccess files (you may also do AllowOverride All):

   <Directory "/var/www/html">
       AllowOverride FileInfo
   </Directory>
