I am using HMVC and my structure looks like:

Applications
Modules
admin/
controllers
views
models

frontend/
controllers
views
models

So basically in routes.config I have default website = frontend/front_controller and $route[‘admin’]= ‘admin/backend_controller’

With HMVC you will have modular structure without any .htacces or php file which will route from one location to another. The only .htaccess I have is posted above and it’s just to hide index.php

Okkkkk I understood what you meant by not naming the folder as /admin Aken !
Folder structure :

/administrator/
    /cache/
    /config/
    /controllers/
    /...
/site/
    /cache/
    /config/
    /controllers/
    /...
/system/
    /...
/www/
    /...
/.htaccess
/index.php
/admin.php 

/admin.php


$application_folder = 'administration';

/site/config/config.php AND /administrator/config/config.php

$config['base_url'] = '';

$config['index_page'] = '';

$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO'; 

And kept the same .htaccess you gave me.

Accessing http://localhost/muki/admin throws me a 404

But, when I change URI_PROTOCOL to PATH_INFO or QUERY_STRING or ORIG_PATH_INFO, i got my login form displayed, without any style, although the called CSS localhost/muki/www/admin/css/screen.css is the correct path. Don’t know if this can help you to find out the issue.
Think we’re not too far from the solution.

If you have static assets in an /admin/ folder, you’ll need to add the same RewriteCond conditions that the index.php rewrite rule has to above the admin RewriteRule. Read the comments in the .htaccess example I gave you.

Ok thanks, I’ll take a look at that.
And what URI_PROTOCOL should I use, and why ? What does it impact ?

Use whichever one makes your app work. It can vary by hosting environment. It impacts how CodeIgniter figures out what the current URL is.

/back/config/config.php

...
$config['index_page'] = 'admin';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'PATH_INFO'; 

/front/config/config.php

...
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO'; 

Thanks a lot for helping guys !
