Codeigniter .htaccess not ignoring directories

I have a website built on codeigniter and am trying to get the PP IPN working with it. I have looked at a few CI specific libraries, but want to have a stand alone IPN file.

Basically, I have CI installed in the website root and I have another directory 'pp', also in the root.

I'm trying to test the IPN using Paypal's sandbox, but it's returning a 404, I also can't access the file directly.

Here is my .htaccess file:

XSendFile on
Options -Indexes
Options +FollowSymlinks
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

### Canonicalize codeigniter URLs
RewriteRule ^(index(/index)?|index(\.php)?)/?$ / [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/index/?$ $1 [L,R=301]

# Removes trailing slashes (prevents SEO duplicate content issues)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ $1 [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.net/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|pp|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
# Without mod_rewrite, route 404's to the front controller
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>

Here's hoping it's something really obvious!

Thanks,

Ryan

If the pp directory exists, you could just put an htaccess file in that directory and just have:

RewriteEngine On

in it by itself, and any rules in the main htaccess file would get ignored. If your paypal stuff already has rewrite rules in an htaccess file in the pp directory, you may want to look into those rules as the cause of the 404.

Do you have mod_rewrite.c enabled. If not, that .htaccess will always give 404. (Sorry I couldn't make this a comment, don't have the rep).
