The Bakery Everything CakePHP

To get cake to work on a godaddy shared linux hosting account.

Another Better Solution (Kudos to ceruleancode)
1. Upload to Server
2. Alter 1 .htaccess file
For the fix to work, modify your app/webroot/ .htaccess file to read the following:

Download code
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

Notice the / in front of the index.php. That simple change makes everything work great. If your project is in a folder (www.domain.com/application) just appended it to the beginning /application/index.php.



===Old Way of Doing it====
1. Upload cake to the server, unpacked before uploading is best.
2. For these instructions to work, the domain has to be set to the root of the cake folder. i.e. domain.com or subdomain.domain.com will work. domain.com/cakephp has not been tested with these instructions
3. Alter 3 .htaccess files
.htaccess in root folder of cake, change the file to read this:
Download code
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule    ^$ app/webroot/    [L]
   RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
   
</IfModule>

.htaccess in /app/ folder:
Download code
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule    ^$    webroot/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) webroot/$1    [L]
 </IfModule>

.htaccess in /app/webroot/ folder:
Download code
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L] 
</IfModule>

Let me know if this was helpful or you can build off of it!
