cannot remove index.php in CodeIgniter application

Question

I'm deploying the web application that we made in our live server but then im having troubles in figuring out how to remove index.php. i have read several blogs regarding how to remove index.php in codeigniter application.

i have tried this settings on my .htaccess

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

and on my config.php

$config['index_page'] = '';

$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';

but i still can't figure out how to remove it. Do i need to edit something in the apache httpd.conf?

thanks!

do you have mod_rewrite enabled on your apache server?

Can you try removing the ? that is present after index.php in your .htaccess:

Change:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

To:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

The following settings are mentioned on CodeIgniter website: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt) RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

This is the one I use. Tried 3 different ones before I found one that worked

DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|(.*)\.swf|forums|images|css|downloads|js|robots\.txt|favicon \.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php?$1 [L,QSA]
