Empty POST on submit

Vote count:

I have a new CodeIgniter instalation and I want to create a login form. When I submit the page it collects no data in POST. This seems to be a server configuration issue rather than CodeIgniter, but I can't figure it out.

My view:

<form class="navbar-form navbar-right" role="form" action="/administrator/login/submit" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">
...
</form>

My controller

<?php

class Login extends CI_Controller
{
    function index()
    {
        $this->load->view("administrator/login_view");
    }

    function submit()
    {
        $this->output->enable_profiler(); 
        //var_dump($_POST);
        var_dump($_REQUEST);

    }
}

Codeigniter is in /var/www/html/sub/

/var/www/html/sub$ ls
application  index.php  license.txt  skins  system  user_guide

My .htaccess in /var/www/.htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /sub/index.php?/$1 [L]  
RedirectMatch 301 ^/$ /administrator/login/

<Files "index.php">
    AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>

My apache2.conf

<Directory /var/www/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
</Directory>

I browse to the url (page loads correctly redirecting to IP/sub/http://ift.tt/1kqiyBd)

http://{SERVER_IP}/administrator/login/

Enter user/password and click submit. But then I don't get anything back, POST is empty.

Output of $_POST

array(0) { }

Output of $_REQUEST

array(1) { ["/html/administrator/login/submit"]=> string(0) "" }

Apparently, maybe I'm wrong, the problem is the fact that the request takes that extra /html in the URI. I also noticed that when I installed Apache 2.4 it created an html folder in /var/www/ which is the default folder if I browse to the server. So how can I make the post to go to "/administrator/login" instead of "/html/administrator/login" - if I am correct and that is my issue here? Funny thing that even with the prefix the controller is still called, if I do an

echo "Hello";

in the controller then I can see that in the browser, it's just the POST is empty It looks like the "html" folder is set in

/etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl.conf
/etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf

For port 443 and 80 respectively.

So here I am, having all these details but being unable to connect the dots. Please help
