Codeigniter 404 error page, routing issue

Question

I have uploaded my web project using codeigniter on the server godaddy and I can access it thru this link http://izhi-ks.org/facelajm/blog I have bought a new domain www.facelajm.com for this site, and I have updated the directory to /facelajm and I get 404 Page Not Found error. so my ftp looks like this: in the root I have another site which is joomla and within that dir I ahave a folder called facelajm. In the codeigniter root dir i have a .htaccess like this: ``` RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L] ``` What I am doing wrong, that I cant open the site only by typing www.facelajm.com In fact it does if i only create a new index.php and print hello world... I am doubting on the htaccess or maybe config file? here is config.php as well: ``` $config['base_url'] = ""; $config['index_page'] = ''; $config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO'; ```

Accepted Answer

Change your `.htaccess` in the `facelajm` directory (which should be the root of your domain) to the following. I think you forgot to turn on `RewriteEngine` and forgot to set `RewriteBase`:

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

Update

A default controller needs to be set in `routes.php`

```
$route['default_controller'] = 'blog';
```
