 Posted: Sat Aug 02, 2008 12:25 am Post subject: .htaccess issue |
|
|
I need to store the .htaccess file in the phpBB3 root folder, which in this case is in a directory called forum. The mod generates the .htaccess file just fine, which looks like this:
| Code: |
# Lines That should already be in your .htacess
<Files "config.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>
<Files "common.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>
# You may need to un-comment the following line
Options +FollowSymlinks
# REMEBER YOU ONLY NEED TO STARD MOD REWRITE ONCE
RewriteEngine On
# REWRITE BASE
RewriteBase /forum/
# HERE IS A GOOD PLACE TO ADD THE WWW PREFIXE REDIRECTION

As you might expect though, it is not working. Here is an example of the URL for a forum with the mod turned off that works fine:
http://www.academytalk.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=4
But when turned on, I get the usual error:
| Quote: | File Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server. |
Any ideas? Thanks as always for the terrific help! |

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it didn't work but since I changed the .htaccess file a bit things are behaving differently.
Here is the current .htaccess file stored in the /forum directory where the forum is:
| Code: | # Lines That should already be in your .htacess
<Files "config.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>
<Files "common.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>

When I click on the link for the first forum, it resolves to:
-http://www.academytalk.com/phpBB3/universities-in-angola-f5.html
If it resolves to http://www.academytalk.com/forum/universities-in-angola-f5.html it works fine.
But nowhere in my .htaccess file (as you can see) is there anyplace where phpBB3 is hardcoded.
Sounds like this should be easy to fix now, I am missing something subtle. mod_Rewrite is definitely enabled. |

Never mind, figured it out. The script_path configuration variable was reset by something (not me) from /forum to /phpBB3. Reset it in phpMyAdmin, purged the cache, and the .htaccess file seems to be working correctly now!
Thanks! |
