Codeigniter 3 remove index.php not working and throws 404 Page Not Found [duplicate]

Question

I am stuck with removing index.php.

mod Rewrite is enabled in my apache, I have checked earlier

my url

http://localhost/projects/ci/admin

Here is my controller

class Admin extends CI_Controller{
    public function index()
    {
        echo "Admin Function";
    }
}

here is my .htaccess file, which I copied from Codeigniter user_guide

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

done everything to run it:

changed $config['base_url'] = ''; to $config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/projects/ci/';

changed $config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI'; to $config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO'; and vice-versa

also $config['index_page'] = 'index.php'; to $config['index_page'] = ''; with the help of stackoverflow solutions but failed to do so.

You should have to do this, but does it work if you specify the routes? Also, what is the name of the controller file? — Goose

You should configure the server so that localhost points to the folder /what/ever/projects/ci/. Then use `$config['base_url'] = 'localhost'; — DFriend

Just because mod rewrite is enabled doesn't mean you're allowed to use .htaccess files. You need to ensure that apache is configured to Allowoverride = all — Brian Gottier

in .htaccess file copy the below code and save it and then try it

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

still not working

Did you save your controller as "Admin.php"or 'admin.php'. If you save it 'admin.php' then you have to save as "Admin.php".

i save it as admin.php ,

Varsha Over a year ago

so you have to save as "Admin.php" not as "admin.php".

I'm sharing my configuration on an application im developing (with CI)

In the file ../application/config/routes.php, line 53 on CI v3.1.6

$route['default_controller'] = 'MyDefaultController';

.htaccess

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

As far as i know does not really matter if u remove index.php if all ur system files are allocated on the ../public_html folder on your server, if not, u should keep it and make the changes so CI "knows" where to find system, application and views files.

Also if u delete index.php and don't set the the default controller on routes.php, (sorry about my english here) CI will not find its "index page".

In short, check the default controller on routes.php Hope it helps.
