CodeIgniter - Remove index.php from URI

Normally with CodeIgniter, the URI will come with http://domain/index.php/controller/method
You may have doubt to remove the index.php to have only http://domain/controller/method ..

Here is the way:
1. mod_rewrite still need to be enable in your apache server
2. Open config.php from your application/config and replace $config['index_page'] = “index.php” by $config['index_page'] = “”

3. In file .htaccess at the root of your website (should be in website root, where the system directory is) and add following line:


RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]

(My case, above changes work fine)

4. In some case, the default setting for uri_protocol does not work properly. To solve this problem just replace $config['uri_protocol'] = “AUTO” by $config['uri_protocol'] = “REQUEST_URI” from application/config/config.php

Enjoy,

Update 26/01: If you want both using index.php with URI or no, you just need to skip option 4 (using uri_protocol as AUTO)

CodeIgniter - Automatic config base url

In CodeIgniter, you may know that you need to configure base url via config.php (param: $config["base_url"]) so when change domain you may doubt sometimes with such small error; Here a solution to help solving the issue;

Change at config.php by fix url with this smart url configuration:

$config['base_url'] = ((isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == "on") ? "https" : "http");
$config['base_url'] .= "://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$config['base_url'] .= str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']),"",$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);

[WordPress] Move integrated local wordpress to production server

First I have read some post and I though it was right but when I followed I got same error such as executing timeout (Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded) when browse the website etc.

I have prepared the wordpress blog with some modification of the theme; integrated and tested my wanted plugin; prepare all pages, navigation etc. I have named my local site as: www.defondyann.loc but when I move to the server for website: www.defondyann.com I got above error and can't browse the page or went to the admin as well.

I tried as following post:
  • http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/10/01/how-to-move-wordpress-blog-to-new-domain-or-location/
  • http://yoast.com/move-wordpress-blog-domain-10-steps/
  • http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress
but not all worked for me so I took some points to do this way:

I. At my local server, I prepared the virtual host by naming as: www.defondyann.comI'm sure you guy know how to do virtual host in windows; any way, here it is:
  • apache2.2.6\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf

ServerAdmin webmaster@defondyann.com
DocumentRoot "Z:/defondyann/wordpress"
ServerName defondyann.com
ServerAlias www.defondyann.com
ErrorLog "logs/defondyann.com-error_log"
CustomLog "logs/defondyann.com-common.log common" combined
  • Change at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
127.0.0.1 www.defondyann.com
II. I browsed the website locally with: www.defondyann.com login to admin as normal
III. Modified upload directory configuration in /wp-admin/options-misc.php
  • To change upload directory to: wp-content/uploads
IV. Modified database, by execute update script via phpMyAdmin or any mysql client:

UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, 'http://www.defondyann.loc', 'http://www.defondyann.com') WHERE option_name = 'home' OR option_name = 'siteurl';
UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = replace(guid, 'http://www.defondyann.loc','http://www.defondyann.com');
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace(post_content, 'http://www.defondyann.loc', 'http://www.defondyann.com');

It's working for me,
Good luck,

Software Development and Logging

Beside understanding programming language and programming model etc. We must know how to manage the message from the development for user, for developer etc. We called logging.

To manage log, we have many ways according to programming language and platform.

Normally, most of the developers neglect on logging during development parse and starting to expect the log files when an issue happens. That's why log management becomes very important for software development that we need to spend time to manage it as much as possible during development parse.

Log Management proceed into 4 levels:
1. Debug : this is a developer logging level. Should use it for any technical test or technical information that not requires to understand the business process.
2. Info : This is user logging level. Use it to describe the business process or information.
3. Warning: This log level is to focus on not mandatory missing element.
4. Error : Use this log level in case of technical or functional error.

There are many tools or add-on tool to help handling for various log management: (but I would suppose for open source project one, Apache)
- log4j : For Java
- log4Net : For MS DotNet
- log4PHP : For PHP
- log4plsql : For PL/SQL or SQLPlus of Oracle
