Hi all,

I’m used to using methods to remove index.php, I’ve read the Wiki post, and most of the time I use NSM .htaccess generator (as I am currently in this case) but this has me stumped.

I have my EE 2 site running using MAMP on my local machine. Everything working as it should. I uploaded all files to my (Linux) server environment and no matter what link I type in it goes to the sites index page unless I add index.php to the url. The .htaccess file is being picked up as altering/deleting it affects the site.

I spoke to support with my hosting company and mod_rewrite is supported and working. To me it looks like something isn’t quite right on the server but support assure me that it is.

I’ve attached my .htaccess file (generated by NSM .htaccess generator) for your perusal.

Any ideas?

Many thanks

Refer to this thread http://bit.ly/pqrJoj

Someone using MAMP was able to get it to work.

I’m not sure if you’ve misunderstood Bkmorse. It works great with MAMP it’s just not working on my live server ; )

Ok, I’m using NSM config_bootstrap.php. I’ve removed it and its working as expected so it must be something to do with that. Can anyone see what could be wrong? Again, it’s working fine locally.

It won’t let me attach the file on here so I’ve uploaded it here.

Many thanks

TheBlackHole,

The only method for removing index.php that we support is outlined here. We can’t offer support for any other uses of .htaccess

Cheers,

Good to know that removal is supported since 2.2 : ). As mentioned I’m pretty sure that the config_bootstrap.php has something to do with my issue… just not sure what!

Hi all, happy to report, after much searching and questions to everyone I know I found a fix via this forum post

I changed this in the config_bootstrap.php file

// Set this so we can use query strings
        'uri_protocol' => 'PATH_INFO',

To

// Set this so we can use query strings
        'uri_protocol' => 'ORIG_PATH_INFO',

Please make a mental note of this one for whoever else has this issue.

I also had a similar problem with .htaccess and the NSM Bootstrap config.php file - http://blog.moogaloo.com/learnt-the-hard-way-dso-woe-and-superphp
