Step 1 => Place your .htaccess file in root folder where application and system folders exist.

Step 2 => If your web path using sub-folder like - yourdomain.com/project/ - then use following code in htaccess file

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase    /project/
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /project/index.php/$1 [L]

If your web path using root-folder like - yourdomain.com - then use following code in htaccess file

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase    /
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
