I have downloaded CodeIgniter Rest Server source code from github https://github.com/chriskacerguis/codeigniter-restserver.
I have integrated as per readme document but i am getting an error of "Invalid API Key " with 403 Forbidden error when i call like htttp://www.sitename.com:81/api/key/index to generate first time new key and store into database.
Screenshot 1 :See this screenshot of error occured in FF browser as well as in POSTMAN Extension used in Google Chrome Windows 7 - 64bit
Below is the code in my Rest.php >>>>>

Code in routes.php >>
$route['api/key/index'] = 'api/key/index'; // Generate First Time Key
Can anyone please guide me how to generate this first time key for CI rest server?
It will be really helpful if anyone give solution for this issue asap as i was trying to resolve it since 2 days to find the solution but did not get any success. :(
