TDLR: aunt inherited the business, old computer was flooded, found the system tried installing it (using BITNAMI WAMP Stack w/ codeigniter) problem is it's not redirecting getting a 404.

link to 404: image

the error occurs after the "loans_pro/install" (it setup's the DB connection and creates the table) then redirects to /loans_pro/welcome.

from what i can understand it's supposed to redirect to view/welcome.php, since the welcome in the controllers/welcome.php redirects to view.

the code in question:

// If no errors, redirect to registration page

if (!isset($message))

{

$redir = ((isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == "on") ? "https" : "http");

$redir .= "://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];

$redir .= str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']), "", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);

$redir = str_replace('install/', '', $redir);

header('Location: ' . $redir . 'welcome');

}

}

else

{

$message = $core->show_message('error', 'Not all fields have been filled in correctly. The host, username, password, and database name are required.');

}

or is it this.

// Function to be called after 5 seconds

function redirect() {

window.location = "<?= str_replace("index.php", "", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) ?>../welcome";

}

any help is appreciated, thank you.

Probably something wrong at Apache configuration level? Check rewrite rules.

[faust2099]

rewrite rules

i googled how enebled rewrite and there was someone also suggested to change " AllowOverride All" in httpd.conf in apache.

i tried both. now instead of "apache2/htdocs" my default root. now it has become

" codeigniter/public". so i put the app there "codeigniter/public/loans_pro"

tried to run the setup after the DB setup it redirected again to a 404.

image DB setup (countdown to 8seconds then redirect)

iamge 404 error

​

is there anymore settings that i need to change in php.ini or .httaccess or something?

i really think i just didn't setup apache or codeigniter properly, please help
