IIS aspect:
Find your php.ini file, and search
;cgi.force_redirect = 1
change it into
cgi.force_redirect = 0
(attention, no semicolon).
Apache aspect:
It is easier to solve than IIS.
Just add an question mark after index.php in .htaccess file, change it into
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
This problem may be due to a wrong suffix name resolution of Apache.

Directives in httpd.conf under VirtualHost must include the subdirectory information:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/subdir/(.*):(.*) /subdir/index.php/$1:$2
Directives under <Directory "D:/path/to/directory"> did not do the job for escaping semicolons.
By the way, thanks for the great job, very clear explanations and simple code to use.
I was struggling for years with this one on several wikis installed on Windows server and Apache.
