You gave us almost no information at all. If you get 404 you probably dont have the file in the place that you are trying to get it from. — Rafał Swacha
Where does the link take you? (URL)? Are you sure the logout() method is in the correct controller (i.e. Main)? — ggdx
i have given a function named log out in the controller called main. in the function ,it redirects me back to my login page. sorry i am little new to ci. — Ravi

missing index.php. try this

<a href="<?php echo base_url('index.php/main/logout'); ?> ">Logout</a>
