$config['index_page'] = "index.php" remove index.php
$config['index_page'] = ""

Now find

$config['uri_protocol'] ="AUTO" replace it $config['uri_protocol'] = "REQUEST_URI"

Paste this code in your .htaccess file, which you just created.

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
