Hi,

I am getting “No input file specified” error message at my Godaddy hosting (caused by PHP as CGI).

I tried hack with

$config['index_page'] = "index.php?";

and url´s like /index.php?welcome are now OK. Unfortunately I am not able to use it with friendly url´s in .htaccess file. I tried about ten variations and nothing was working. My current .htaccess file looks like:

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

Has anybody working htaccess file at godaddy?

contact godaddy? sometimes, the server blocks this thing….

my .htacess

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

I think it won´t work because I need to rewrite url index.php?blablabla and no index.php/blablabla

I think it won´t work because I need to rewrite url index.php?blablabla and no index.php/blablabla

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

still no working?
maybe you don’t have permissons to use .htaccess!!! i think that is the problem

I am SO STUPID. I used Notepad in Windows Vista for quick editing htaccess and it didn´t rewrite previous file.

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

So the problem was between the chair and monitor?  :cheese:

Hey, try to use GVIM for quick editing files, fast as a punk rock song and easy as a cool beer

I’ve got a similar problem (Hosting on a FreeBSD server, not GoDaddy) and unfortunately the final solution posted didn’t work for me.
If I use the following config.php settings:

$config[‘index_page’] = “index.php?”;
$config[‘uri_protocol’]  = “QUERY_STRING”;

I can get pages using site.com/index.php?pagename

Naturally, I want clean URLs, but if I post an htaccess file using this:

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

This is what I get:
site.com/pagename—redirects me to the default view.
site.com/index.php— 404 error
site.com/index.php/pagename—“No input file specified”
site.com/index.php?pagename— 404 error

Any ideas?

Try to remove

RewriteBase  /

No dice. Doing that and trying site.com/pagename returns a 404.

this 404 error, is codeigniter or is apache?

It’s Apache

It’s Apache

Hum…

In my house, works fine fine… In my Webserver, needs some extra configuration!!!

Please, send me a PM to talk in some messenger!!! If found an answer, put in this thread to future users, ok??

If you want, sure…

Hello Folks,

input file not specified:

I am submitting a link which will explain you what exactly you have to do.

While doing just remember that your index.php? should contain ? mark

Check this link

I faced the same problem andI found the solution in this link:

Fixing No input file specified issue

Basicly I put the .htaccess in the same directory as my CI project and the .htaccess should look like this:

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

In the config.php file (in my case ci/application/config/config.php -  Depends of your directory organization)
you should set:

$config[‘base_url’]=‘http://www.YOUR_PROJECT_NAME_GOES_HERE.COM/THE_DIRECTORY_OF_YOUR_CI_PROJECT_NAME’;

$config[‘index_page’] = ‘’;

and

$config[‘uri_protocol’] = ‘AUTO’;

Good Luck for everyone!

Did not resolve the issue yet for me.
I need to set/redirect the site as http://www.mysite.com instead of http://www.mysite.com/index.php? in godaddy
If I type mysite.com it shows blank page, but mysite.com/index.php? loads the website.
Kindly suggest.
