Hey,

I have a trouble on my board.

Eg if you go to: http://studmed.dk/studmed-debat.html you'll see that I have

Page 1 of 27 • 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ... 27

But if you press on eg "2"

I get this link http://studmed.dk/studmed-debat-50.html and it just says:

The forum you selected does not exist.

Looks like you updated and did not update your .htaccess, please generate a new one, the forum rewriterule changed a bit (not the forum urls).

++

Thank you for your answer!

But I already did so and now I did it again - but still the same result

I have cleared the cache etc, so.....?

Code: Select all

Mm, could be the viewforum.php file then, if of course you updated.

If so, double check the file, there is some old code to delete in the update process, you may have kept it.

It should have this in the begining :

Code: Select all

include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/functions_display.' . $phpEx);
// www.phpBB-SEO.com SEO TOOLKIT BEGIN
if (empty($_REQUEST['f'])) {
   $phpbb_seo->get_forum_id($session_forum_id);
   if ($session_forum_id == 0) {
      header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');
   } else {
      $_REQUEST['f'] = (int) $session_forum_id;
   }
}
// www.phpBB-SEO.com SEO TOOLKIT END
// Start session
$user->session_begin();
$auth->acl($user->data);

// Start initial var setup
$forum_id   = request_var('f', 0);
$mark_read   = request_var('mark', '');
$start      = request_var('start', 0);

$sort_days   = request_var('st', ((!empty($user->data['user_topic_show_days'])) ? $user->data['user_topic_show_days'] : 0));
$sort_key   = request_var('sk', ((!empty($user->data['user_topic_sortby_type'])) ? $user->data['user_topic_sortby_type'] : 't'));
$sort_dir   = request_var('sd', ((!empty($user->data['user_topic_sortby_dir'])) ? $user->data['user_topic_sortby_dir'] : 'd'));

++

I have that code already!

I run phpBB3 premodded 3.0.1

How I see, the regex could be the guilty one, please replace :

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]+)(-([0-9]+))?\.html$ /viewforum.php?forum_uri=$1&start=$3 [QSA,L,NC]

with :

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^([a-z_-]+)(-([0-9]+))?\.html$ /viewforum.php?forum_uri=$1&start=$3 [QSA,L,NC]

I have to think of a better trick here, because this one will not allow numbers in forum URLs.

Should solve the issue for your case though.

It solved it.... (If it gives other errors I cant say as I havent crash tested it yet.....)

Here is a better trick, it's only required for forum urls when virtual folder is not activated and when the suffix is not "/", replace :

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]+)(-([0-9]+))?\.html$ /viewforum.php?forum_uri=$1&start=$3 [QSA,L,NC]

with :

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]*[a-z_]+)(-([0-9]+))?\.html$ /viewforum.php?forum_uri=$1&start=$3 [QSA,L,NC]

will allow forum urls such as forum22-82url but not forum22-url58.

Will continue to look for a better fix for this

And don't worry, this was not a crash, only a 404

++

just to be 100% sure - do I need both changes or only the last?

Yes, it's a second version of the same fix, meant to be used instead of the first one, handles more cases.

++

Here is a fix that will work in all case, we need to use two set of rewriterules in this case :
Replace :

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]+)(-([0-9]+))?\.html$ /viewforum.php?forum_uri=$1&start=$3 [QSA,L,NC]

with :

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]+)(-([0-9]+))\.html$ /viewforum.php?forum_uri=$1&start=$3 [QSA,L,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]+)\.html$ /viewforum.php?forum_uri=$1 [QSA,L,NC]

Works in all cases, but some will need to add paths in the rewriterule, this example as is is meant for a root install.

Hi,

I had same problem here:
http://www.englishexperts.com.br/forum/ ... es-25.html

Your solution worked fine for me.

Tks a lot, you are the best!
