code igniter routing

Question

When I go here: localhost/codeigniter/index.php/gallery the file is there

but when I go here: localhost/codeigniter/gallery I get this: Not Found The requested URL /codeigniter/gallery was not found on this server.

However when I go here: localhost/codeigniter/ everything is good. It’s the same as localhost/codeigniter/index.php/

I put this in my .htacess file in the system folder: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond $1 !^(index.php|images|robots.txt) RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

I also made sure that in the config.php file that

$config[‘base_url’] = ‘’;

$config[‘index_page’] = ‘’;

You need mod_rewrite enabled. The reason localhost/codeigniter works is because it defaults to the index.php file. However, past that, the server looks for a directory. You need Apache to parse that differently.

Look here:
