Restler returns a 404 status code if index.php is not included in the URL

Question

First of all, thanks for the RESTLER Framework, this is great!

I installed the Restler API on "http://api.odience.net/". Restler responds with the correct response authority, but returns a 404 status code if I don't include index.php in the url. I installed the .htaccess file, as the examples say, but I can’t understand why it does not respond with the correct status code.

Example:

* - Access to /sandbox/about/products/en.json (and passing some GET variables + calling the about sandbox.php method) returns a 404 header, even if the returned body data is correct!

* - If we add the file "index.php" to the url, the headers are fine!

Try: Access /index.php/sandbox/about/products/en.json (with the same GETs)

Here is my detailed .HTACCESS file for the Restler root directory:

## Can be commented out if causes errors. Options +FollowSymLinks <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On ## Begin - Rewrite rules to block out some common exploits. # If you experience problems on your site block out the operations listed below # This attempts to block the most common type of exploit `attempts` to Joomla! # # Block out any script trying to base64_encode data within the URL.

To protect the Restler environment, Restler library files are not available on the Internet, and the API_ROOT / index.php file includes them automatically using the require_once command.

Please advise how to configure this setting as expected?

Change% {REQUEST_FILENAME} in the .htaccess file to% {DOCUMENT_ROOT}% {REQUEST_FILENAME} (this worked for me) Below is my .htaccess. NTN

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