I upgraded to Ver PHPBB 0.22 and installed all the mods again. Embarassed

I just have one problem with my rewrite now as the urls have changed. How can I get it back. I cant get the 404 to redict to the front page either.

BEFORE
driver-630-730-gfxcel-pc133-video-driver-vt643.html

NOW
driver-630-730-gfxcel-pc133-video-driver-t643.html

HTACCESS
# These three lines should only be added if not already done in the .htaccess

RemoveHandler .html .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^myforum.net [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.myforum.net/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteBase /

ErrorDocument 404 errors/404.html

You must have been using an old version of the mod.
