Welcome to CodeIgniter!

The page you are looking at is being generated dynamically by CodeIgniter.

If you would like to edit this page you'll find it located at:

application/views/welcome_message.php
The corresponding controller for this page is found at:

application/controllers/Welcome.php
If you are exploring CodeIgniter for the very first time, you should start by reading the User Guide.

Page rendered in 0.3197 seconds. CodeIgniter Version 3.0.0

This project hosted in godaddy web server.

Answer 1

If you are uploading your project, follow these steps:

1. Make sure you have uploaded application, system, index.php, .htaccess.

2. Modify your config/database.php with your hosted database.

3. Make sure of URL spellings, because Linux hosting is case-sensitive.

4. Make sure all resources are uploaded to server (CSS, JS, images, etc ...)

 * This can be handy as it permits you to share one application between
