URL Redirection on GoDaddy not working (404 Errors)

Permalink
I just installed the base files for a new site with 8.4.1 on GoDaddy Linux servers. When I enable URL Redirection I get a 404 error when I attempt to go to /login. If I go to index.php/login it removes the index.php and renders it as /login but as a 404. Any thoughts?

First thing I did... URL Redirection enabled throws a 404. Creating/modifying the htaccess file goes a step further and render a 500 Internal Server Error. Changing the URL Redirection in the config file but leaving he htaccess file still ends with a 500 error.

Everything is enabled in the config files as well as .htaccess. Any thoughts?

SOLVED: Interestingly... I recall someone saying a while back to add a BLANK php5.ini file to the root in conjunction with htacess. I did that in tandom with the htacces file and enabled URL Redirection via the dashboard on top of the php5.ini and htaccess combo and it worked... 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

   RewriteBase /
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html !-f
