CI & .htaccess problem

[Grandioso]

I have the same exact .htaccess file with the same exact application on a remote server and on localhost. One works without problems, one gives a "500 internal server error".

 

What it should do is redirect any page ("domain.xx/link/to/page") to "domain.xx/index.php/link/to/page" (CodeIgniter does it this way). The problem is that it redirects everything, so even my css file gets redirected.

So I tried to get around this with success on localhost.

Here's my .htaccess :

 

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|design)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

 

Any idea how could I have the same functionality, with a code that works on the remote server or what can cause the problem ?

to stop it doing mod-rewrite on css, js and images files you need to add the following 2 rewrite conditions to your htaccess file.

 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

 

So your new htaccess will look like this...

 

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

 

However, to be honest, I would just use the htaccess given here... http://codeigniter.com/wiki/mod_rewrite/

I'm sorry, this was already solved. I had to add "RewriteBase /", that's all
