CI Bonfire：无法从安装的第一步开始

Question

I plan to use Bonfire 0.7 in my new project but I can't get to install it. I've downloaded the master package and unzipped it into the www folder of my Wamp Server. The landing page tells me to manually create database and set the config files. I've done it as required but when I click the continue button it redirects me to http://localhost/public which obviously gives the error The requested URL /public/ was not found on this server.

Is this an .htaccess problem? The site documentation says The web root should point to the /public folder. How should I do that? I know I'm doing something terribly wrong for which there might be a simple obvious explanation but what? Please help!

Edit: When I manually go to http://localhost/bonfire/public it redirects me to http://localhost/bonfire/index.php/install which is the same page as the landing page where clicking on continue button again redirects to http://localhost/public .

Answer 1

Ali your application is in the bonfire subfolder on the root. Move all the files inside the bonfire folder to the www folder. Installation document on cibonfire website has the details.

Note: by moving the bonfire application to the root www , you won't be able to run other web applications. It is better to keep applications in subfolders on WAMP. If this is what you decide, change the config.php (/application/config/) and .htaccess accordingly. The bonfire forum has details.

Answer 2

After a lot of head-banging I finally solved it by installing Bonfire on XAMPP instead of WAMP and is now working like a charm. Don't know if this counts as a solution at all but whatever. I don't know what kind of grudge Bonfire has with WAMP.

Answer 3

Please try this. It works for me.

Edit the index.php file under bonfire-master folder.

Add the sub folder path index.php file like this

$install_url = 'http'.((empty($_SERVER['HTTPS']) or $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'off')?'':'s')  .'://'. $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] .'/{sub folder name}/public/';

Replace the sub folder name with your sub folder.

Then rename 1.htaccess to .htaccess file under public folder and search for Rewrite Base

Add the sub folder path there .

That should fix the issue.
