  /language

Answer 1

if your root folder for project is not root of domain i.e. your website is subdirectory of a domain http://localhost/myproject then you need an additional line in your .htaccess file that is RewriteBase

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /myproject
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

Also make sure, your config.php is configured as

$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/myproject/';
$config['index_page'] = '';

And mod_rewrite is enable in apache's config file.
