CodeIgniter mode_rewrite (index.php)

[Jaswinder]

Hi all

Its my first project in CodeIgniter and I tried to make it live from local

 

Issue is, In local server, site URI is running without index.php, but live it is giving error.

 

e.g http://localhost/ci_basic/site/about

 

folder name -  ci_basic

Controller name - site

Function name - about

 

In .htaccess file

 

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /ci_basic/

 

Now i uploaded the file in a folder named - chikabana ( folder in my root directory assigned to the chikabana.com )

 

In .htaccess file

 

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /chikabana/

 

I also changed the base url to - chikabana.com in config file

and also removed index.php from config file.

 

But this URL not working - http://chikabana.com/site/about

 

this is working - http://chikabana.com/index.php/site/about

 

 

 

Also my second question is  - how i remove the controller name from url?
