Setup CodeIgniter site on Godaddy hosting

Question

I am trying to upload my code-igniter site on Godaddy hosting. but getting 404 page not found error.

Project structure

root/public_html/project

I am trying to access the project at www.site.com/project

My .htacess file

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt) 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA] 

Important things in config.php

$config['base_url'] = '';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';
$config['allow_get_array'] = TRUE;
$config['enable_query_strings'] = FALSE;

Important things in routes file

$route['default_controller'] = 'main';

I have tried so many .htacess files and config edits but couldn't sort the issue out. Please help

Model,Controller and other libraries must start with a capital letter in codeigniter ( godaddy )

If you didnt make it work with .httacces , you should follow the new standars since codeigniter 2.x to 3.x ->.

Codeigniter 2.X

Codeigniter 3.X

http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/models.html

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EllisLab/CodeIgniter/develop/user_guide_src/source/installation/upgrade_300.rst

Model,Controller and other libraries must start with a capital letter.However, in some PHP servers like XAMPP this is omitted, so in localhost you should get follow these changes. Just start to type uppercase your php classes.

For example, if you have the following library file:

application/libraries/mylibrary.php

... then you'll have to rename it to:

application/libraries/Mylibrary.php

The same goes for driver libraries and extensions and/or overrides of CodeIgniter's own libraries and core classes.

application/libraries/MY_email.php application/core/MY_log.php

The above files should respectively be renamed to the following:

application/libraries/MY_Email.php application/core/MY_Log.php

Controllers:

application/controllers/welcome.php -> application/controllers/Welcome.php

Models:

application/models/misc_model.php -> application/models/Misc_model.php
