Well, I hope this is in the right place, if not please move it.
My host moved all their accounts to a different server which is in a different location. Ever since the move my topics, and posts don't show. I get 404 pages. I do have the simple mod-rewrite. Has anyone experienced this before, and if so could you shed some light how to correct this problem?
Thank you |

hi
i think its a .htaccess file issue
did you check your .htaccess file ?
i had a similar problem with netfirm hosting. some hosts are limited the .htaccess rules. if you are checked your htaccess file and its ok please remove this line in top of your .htaccess file (if it is exist in your file)

removing this line solved my problem in netfirm hosting |

You can try adding it then, could as well be only it.
Because it looks like .htaccess related issue. Other possible causes could be mod_rewrite not being available any more on your hosting, or, the slash ("/") thing in the rewriterules :
| Code: | | RewriteRule ^phpbb/post([0-9]+)\.html$ /phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=$1 [QSA,L,NC] |
VS :
| Code: | | RewriteRule ^phpbb/post([0-9]+)\.html$ phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=$1 [QSA,L,NC] |
Noticed the slash before the path (here phpbb/ vs /phpbb/).

Hey, guys thanks for pointing me in the wrong direction. After a second take I noticed all the changes in the htaccess were deleted and looked like what is below. It's a good thing I keep a backup copy, and should be able to fix this in a min.
