Codeigniter 500 internal server error due to index.php

Question

I am working with codeigniter framework, and as I upload it to a host, it gave me a 500 Internal error.

But when I add index.php to config.php , it worked.

What should I do?

In my .htaccess I have this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /ci-framework/

And also when I clean /ci-framework/ from end of RewriteBase it doesn't work.

Thank you very much.

Solution

You don't need to add index.php in config.php file. Make sure you have following line in .htaccess file:

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

make sure your wamp rewrite_modue is on.. in APACHE > APACHE Modules > rewrite_module

adding <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> in begining and closing with </IfModule> worked for me. :-)
