I have installed Slim3 in linux machine using composer.  
i have created index.php file. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/slimframework/original/1X/a9e22323634e704b57e16d1285c4ccb3844f5097.JPG)

Now if i will try to access root dir it will give me “Welcome back” message but if i will try to access “/profile/Name” it is throwing “Not Found” error in the browser. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/slimframework/original/1X/57051fdbfea19e664f15d0263bf2d71d3446a20e.JPG)

Have you checked if the `AllowOverride` option is set and the `.htaccess` file is used by Apache?

Yes i have added that in httpd.config  
This is my code and i am sure my apache server is using .htacces file of my folder because if i will give root dir of project in URL then it is working but whenever i am giving some arguments like “profile/brijesh” then only it is throwing Not Found.

Try with this in the .htaccess:  
RewriteEngine On  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST\_FILENAME} !-f  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST\_FILENAME} !-d  
RewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L]

The default page not found page delivered by Slim looks different from the page you are getting:

You can check if `index.php` is called by replacing the contents of `index.php` with something simple, e.g.:

```auto
<p>index.php is called.</p>

```
