mod-rewrite RewriteBase无法从root正常工作

Question

Hi I have been following the "Build a PHP MVC Application" tutorial on Codecourse's YouTube Channel.

I have moved the project to the root(htdocs) and now when I load http://localhost all I see is the default apache folder index.

My files are organised as such:

htdocs
->app
->public
->.htaccess

.htacces contains:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /public/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]

Edit: if I go to localhost/home (one of the controllers i setup) it loads the page correctly

Answer 1

The rewritable part http://localhost/ is empty, so it does not match (.+). It would match (.*).
