remove index.php by using htaccess doesnt work

Question

I would like to remove index.php by using .htaccess file in root directory.

my framwork is codeigniter .

my htaccess :

AddType application/x-httpd-php53 php53 php

php_flag  log_errors on
php_flag  display_errors on
#php_value error_reporting 8
php_value error_reporting E_ALL

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^megarooz.com/$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://megarooz.com/$1 [R=301,L]

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

order allow,deny
allow from all

my config:

$config['base_url'] = 'http://megarooz.com';


$config['index_page'] = '';

I got this message :

Not Found
The requested document was not found on this server.

It doesnt work :

http://megarooz.com/admin/Admin/login

It works fine :

http://megarooz.com/index.php/admin/Admin/login

Is mod_rewrite installed and enabled in Apache? Also, try changing `on` to `On` — M. Eriksson, Feb 01 '17 at 05:53

@Magnus Eriksson how can I see `mod_rewrite` is enabled or not ? — F.Joodaki, Feb 01 '17 at 06:21
What OS are you using? Btw, are you on PHP 5.3? You should _really_ upgrade your system. 5.3 hasn't been supported for a long time. Even 5.6 has reach end of active support. — M. Eriksson, Feb 01 '17 at 06:23

Try doing using below code

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L] // you have added / before index.php
    </IfModule>

Try like this....

1.In your root folder. .htaccess file

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

2.In application/config/config.php set following things

$config['base_url'] = 'http://megarooz.com/';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';

Hope it works.

As this is an extremely commonly asked question on Stack I'd like you to some more research next time as it's filled with CI's index.php questions. Non the less I do agree with CI's htaccess being a little bad as it hasn't always worked for me either, what I end up doing is grabbing the htaccess from Laravel.

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

Never had problems with it, hope this will work.
