October CMS: Despite the redirection, http://localhost/backend returns a 404, whereas http://localhost/index.php/backend works

I've installed Laravel October CMS. When I access http://localhost/index.php/backend, I can see the loging page of the backend. When I access http://localhost/backend I've 404 Not Found.

I've taken a look to .htaccess, I've uncommented the RewriteBase and set the value / /index.php.

However it still returns a 404. Do you know why?

Solution

  • I believe you are simply looking for following Rule based on your shown samples. Also please make sure you clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.

    RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^backend/?$ index.php [NC,L]

    In case this is the only rule of your htaccess file then change L to END in above.
