how about change

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

to

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]
</IfModule>

Thanks that worked. Why doesn't it work with the '/' but with the '?' ?

I have a large number of virtualhosts to convert and am worried about little rewrite issues like this.

[NiteWave]

good news. have you tried on apache? if not working under apache, then the rewriterule not written properly.

[accassar]

yes the rewrite rule worked on apache.

why did the ? work and not the /, i imaging it's a fairly common rewrite?
