My issue with mod_rewrite
With my xammp in Windows, enable mod_rewrite is so easy. I just need to uncomment module mod_rewrite in Apache configuration (httpd.conf), restart apache, then everything just fine.
Of course i still need to add .htaccess.
In my Ubuntu linux machine, i need to struggle just to enable mod_rewrite module. I figure out that in linux machine (Ubuntu), apache configuration was in different file , but i figure it out and activate the mod_rewrite. In phpinfo(), i can see mod_rewrite is active, but then nothing change. I can't use clean url from mod_rewrite. I thought i made a mistake in .htaccess file because i just copy the setting from codeigniter user guide.
Then after a few hours reading documentation, i figure out that in my apache linux (Ubuntu) AllowOverride was set to none, meanwhile in my XAMMP it was set to All, i change that, restart apache, and everything just fine. Now, Apache recognize my .htaccess.
If i'm right, in my apache linux machine, the configuration was set so that .htaccess file can't override apache configuration.
Am i right???

then i remember, i've codeigniter application (BambooInvoice by Derek Allard)
this is how BambooInvoice file structure like
+ codeigniter_system
+ img
+ css
+ js

Here my css file that i store in css/style.css
css/style.css
and here my controller
codeigniter/system/application/controller/blog.php (controller)
and here is my view

Note that before you can use base_url function, you have to add url helper by add $this->load->helper('url') to your controller

CodeIgniter Tutorial #1 Installation
I think CodeIgniter installation is straightforward, just follow the instructions from the CodeIgniter user guide
The instructions say
but then again i just wanna share my installation. CodeIgniter, here we come...
Windows CodeIgniter installation
Requirement :
ok then after my XAMPP installation (just a few click ok..ok..ok and you will get there) and get codeigniter then
you will see this
and you'r done. Check the user guide for informations, the user guide is awesome.
Linux CodeIgniter installation ( Ubuntu Linux, Feisty Fawn )
Note that in standard Ubuntu installation you wont get apache server, mysql server, and php.
so install those things...
hehehe, well nothing to explain in this section. just follow the steps from the user guide.
i put my CodeIgniter package in my webroot, unzip, and everything goes well except for the mod_rewrite setting. I'll show
you later about my mod_rewrite setting (because of i don't know how to that)
if i made a mistake, tell me about it, i will learn from my mistake, and maybe another person can learn from my mistakes
The instructions say
CodeIgniter is installed in four steps:
- Unzip the package.
- Upload the CodeIgniter folders and files to your server. Normally the index.php file will be at your root.
- Open the application/config/config.php file with a text editor and set your base URL.
- If you intend to use a database, open the application/config/database.php file with a text editor and set your database settings.

It's offer MVC (Model-View-Controller), great manual, community. It is developed by pMachine, who also create Expression Engine CMS. Actually most of the code was taken from the Expression Engine (CMIIW).
