I setup my Codeigniter version 2.1.4 on Hostgator. When I put all the files (including application, system, public etc.) in the public_html folder, everything works as expected. But I decided to take all the files and folders out of public_html folder and just leave what is inside of public folder inside of public_html. So the application, system, .htaccess file and all the other thing are in (webroot/codeigniterfolder/). I was able to access my main site www.abc.com. But when I navigate to another controller, say www.abc.com/order, it breaks and displays a 404 error. I have to manually add www.abc.com/index.php/order for it to work.

I tried all day today to make it work but still no luck. I mess with the .htaccess file and route and everything. but still no luck. Can anyone help?

The htaccess file needs to be in the public_html directory alongside the index.php file – Marshall C Dec 17 '20 at 06:00

Thank for helping. I thought htaccess file is suppose to be hiddent and has to be in the root folder? – Zhen Cai Dec 19 '20 at 14:24
