Setting BaseURL for Codeigniter

Question

I set my baseurl to:

http://localhost/codeigniter/

in the application/config/config.php file as asked by the installation instructions.

I was following this tutorial. However, when I type in the url: http://localhost/codeigniter/index.php/pages/view , I get the the following error:

Object not found!

The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Error 404

localhost 7/27/2012 11:14:39 PM Apache/2.2.12 (Win32) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.2.12 OpenSSL/0.9.8k mod_autoindex_color PHP/5.3.0 mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.0

I found the following contents in .htaccess file in the path of E:\WEB D\xampp\htdocs\CodeIgniter_2.1.2\application:

Deny from all

I am totally new to the CodeIgniter framework. Can someone help me out?

Please include the entire error message in your question. It shouldn't just say "Object Not Found." — Matt

Ok, well for anyone wondering the final solution to this was that the directories were not properly named. When creating a local server it is important to put the contents of the files in the correct folder.

So if you have http://localhost/codeigniter then the directory should be setup as \path\to\webdirectory\root\codeigniter or in this case: E:\WEBD\xampp\htdocs\codeigniter

try edit your .htaccess file became like this below, and put .htaccess file in your root application folder

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

Make sure that your php errors are visible.

I had this issue as well when trying to set the base_url for Code Igniter when I was working off localhost. I had a look in the htaccess file, checked that mod_rewrite was switched on, tried altering the base_url but all failed.

The solution was to make sure that the environment was set to development in the main index.php file and to ensure that $config['log_threshold'] = 4; is set in config.php.

After that my php errors showed up. I'd forgotten to switch the development environment for the new website build.
