Although all the requirements are complete, after the installation is finished, the 404 screen comes up at the /admin url

Hello,

Please make sure that you have uploaded the `.htaccess` file. If yes, please take the screenshots of the uploaded files (including .htaccess) and the contents of the `.htaccess` file.

The FAQ for 404 from the documentation.pdf

**Why am I getting 404 Not Found error after installation?**

Please

1. make sure that your apache `mod_rewite` is enabled
2. check that `.htaccess` file is successfully uploaded and exists in the main directory of SMA
3. `base_url` in `app/config/config.php`

If you are using godaddy, please visit the codeigniter official guide here. You might need to check and modify you .htaccess files too.

Thank you

It Doesn't Happen, Can You Give Your E-Mail Address? Can You Set It Up Against The Fee?

I've Tried Everything

For example, what should the .htaccess content be?

Hello,

Please check your download again. If you still can't find the `.htaccess` in your download, please take the screenshot and attach it with your reply. If you are on linux/unix system, the dot files are hidden by default.

Anyway, here are the contents of the file, you can create it on your server.

```
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On
# RewriteBase /basepath/
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|assets|install|update)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

# For godady Shared Hosting Server uncomment the line below
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

# Please comment this if you have uncommented the above
# RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [NC,L,QSA]

</IfModule>
```

Thank you

Thanks Mate :)

There is no admin folder in the directory, how do you think it will work?
