It seems like lots of people are having this issue. Hopefully by detailing the issues I'm facing will help with troubleshooting.
I am one of the many people who are getting some 404 errors.
Originally, my .htaccess did not copy over to my server.
I have the directory set up similar to the way the video has it.
So I have my domain: http://mydomain.com/dfg/
If I browse to that I get a copy of the setup page, but there are no graphics like in the video. If I go from this page it installs fine and brings me to a page (setup.php I assume, also with no graphics) that says dfgconfig.php is created... gives me an admin account and pass. It then links me to a login page: admin/login.
If I click the link I get a 404 and instead of trying to hit http://mydomain.com/dfg/admin/login (or index.php?admin/login) it 404s at http://mydomain.com/admin/login
So I've played around with it a lot after running into these issues, including reloading all of the files and starting from scratch. Here's what ended up happening:
If I used the prefix http://mydomain.com/dfg/index.php? for all of the extensions (admin/setup, admin/login) everything works (including the graphics seen in the video). Except whatever forwarding link (so from login to gallery) will go back to http://mydomain.com/gallery/.
So this makes me feel like there is some issue when index.php is using apache rewrite (or when CI is using it) is writing my directory length...
I was able to run index.php on it's own after the initial setup which errors out because everything is already written. Thankfully it also let me run other code to test things.
So I echo'd all of the following terms:
| EXT - The file extension. Typically ".php"
| FCPATH - The full server path to THIS file
| SELF - The name of THIS file (typically "index.php)
| BASEPATH - The full server path to the "system" folder
| APPPATH - The full server path to the "application" folder
They all seemed to come back with the right information (in my case /home/xxx/xxx/public_html/dfg/index.php)
The one weird thing that I saw in code execution is that $system_folder is lib//ci (it seemed like it still worked though)
Thanks in advance!

Guys, also having this issue. The trouble with the install video also shows that you are setting up on a local host not on a remote server which 99% of users will be doing. I don't think the app is usable with the current issues. Real shame as I have been waiting for this release since Sept. Hope the updates aren't going to take as long.
