And.. if you wanna remove the ‘index.php’ part automatically from requested URI, the ‘.htaccess’ file is still required.

I put the following contents in the xx/www/.htaccess file.
————–
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
————–

Nice job!!

Two things you should mention are
1. remove .htaccess files from your document directory hierarchy. Or use carefully. They’ll make conflicts in certain conditions.
2. set ‘AllowOverride’ to ‘All’ in both the normal(http) and ssl configurations.

They’re worth mentioning at least for newbies like me.

Thank you Nigel. This is a problem I’ve been toying with for a while and finally sat down to solve it. This solution is the quickest, easiest and most elegant I have seen yet – I can’t see a downside to it.
