CodeIgniter | .htaccess removing index.php from url

Question

ok, i did exactly as asked in the documentation of codeigniter, created new file .htaccess

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

i am using xampp, so my url for accessing the site was

http://localhost:12/projects/zorkif_nextgen/index.php/main

now after applying the above .htaccess file, i tried it without index.php like this

http://localhost:12/projects/zorkif_nextgen/main

but instead of working, it is redirecting me to this url

http://localhost:12/xampp

How to resolve this issue?

plus i am getting error on my page after trying the .htaccess

on top of page message is appearing,

 Error Occured.
Warning!. Make sure you perform the correct action.
The Action has been completed Successfully.

Edit:

Here is some of my config.php file settings

$config['base_url'] = '';
$config['index_page'] = 'index.php';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';
$config['url_suffix'] = '';
$config['enable_hooks'] = FALSE;
$config['permitted_uri_chars'] = 'a-z 0-9~%.:_\-';
$config['allow_get_array']      = TRUE;
$config['enable_query_strings'] = FALSE;
$config['controller_trigger']   = 'c';
$config['function_trigger']     = 'm';
$config['directory_trigger']    = 'd'; // experimental not currently in use
$config['sess_cookie_name']     = 'zk_ci_session';
$config['sess_expiration']      = 7200;
$config['sess_expire_on_close'] = TRUE;
$config['sess_encrypt_cookie']  = TRUE;
$config['sess_use_database']    = TRUE;
$config['sess_table_name']      = 'sys_ci_sessions';
$config['sess_match_ip']        = FALSE;
$config['sess_match_useragent'] = TRUE;
$config['sess_time_to_update']  = 300;
$config['csrf_protection'] = TRUE;
$config['csrf_token_name'] = 'csrf_test_name';
$config['csrf_cookie_name'] = 'csrf_cookie_name';
$config['csrf_expire'] = 7200;
$config['rewrite_short_tags'] = FALSE;

Instead of RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L] use RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L] in your root folder/.htaccess — RN Kushwaha

this is works well for me:

1- create .htaccess file in the root folder with the following content

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

2- from the config file change $config['index_page'] = 'index.php'; to $config['index_page'] = '';

Try defining the RewriteBase to /projects/zorkif_nextgen

RewriteBase /projects/zorkif_nextgen

Try the following

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# Hide the application and system directories by redirecting the request to index.php
RewriteRule ^(application|system|\.svn) index.php/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,L]

Thankyou for reply, i tried your code, It works but it is same, i have to write the index.php to make it work. if i try zorkif_nextgen/main then it again redirects me to the localhost:12/xampp?? why its redirecting me to the main root.?

You can try this

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> 
   RewriteEngine on 
   RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|swf|uploads|js|css|robots\.txt) 
   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /ci/index.php/$1 [L] 
</IfModule>

You may have look at config/routes.php.

It may have been set to a default controller.

Don't use an .htaccess file to remove index.php from your URLs. This is an issue in your config. Look specifically at $config['base_url'] and $config['index_page']
