First of all, thanks for RESTLER Framework, it is wonderful!
I've set up Restler API on "http://api.odience.net/" . Restler responds with correct response body but returns a 404 status code if I don't include index.php in the url. I've set up the .htaccess file as said in the examples but I can't figure out why it doesn't reply with the correct status code.
Example:
*- Accessing /sandbox/about/products/en.json (and passing some GET variables + calling the about method of sandbox.php) returns a 404 header even if the body data returned is correct!
*- If we add the "index.php" file to the url, headers are fine!
Try: Access /index.php/sandbox/about/products/en.json (with same GET vars)
Here is my detailed .HTACCESS file for the Restler root directory:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [QSA,L]

</IfModule>
To secure Restler framework, the Restler library files are not available to the web and the API_ROOT/index.php file includes them automatically with a "require_once" command.
Please advise how to make this setup work as expected?
