codeigniter .htaccess godaddy db

Question

Home controller is ok

Other Codeigniter controllers cannot be accessed using rewrite and instead it shows

Database connection error (2): Could not connect to MySQL.

but using index.php/[nameofcontrollerorroute] it shows normally... I don't think db connection is the problem since I can access the Home controller w/c already connect to db, of course, and using the index.php/[nameofcontrollerorroute]

.htaccess:

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

I also tried changing the config values [uri_protocol & index_page] and still no changes.

I'm using GoDaddy Hosting and the codeigniter is in a subdirectory, I already tried different solutions here in stackoverflow questions. any ideas?

localhosting is very okay with XAMPP

Try this .htaccess works for my website which is in codeigniter and hosted on godaddy.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
        #AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
        RewriteBase /

        #Removes access to the system folder by users.
        #Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,
        #previously this would not have been possible.
        #'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.

        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

        #Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,
        #such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the
        #request to index.php

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

    </IfModule>

    <IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
       # If we don't have mod_rewrite installed, all 404's
       # can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.

       ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
    </IfModule>
