vbseo 3.2.0 rc7 - 500 Internal Server Error

I upgraded to vbseo 3.2.0 rc7 from vbseo 3.2.0 rc5. I followed all upgrade procedures properly, and when my page would attempt to load the forums, I would get a 500 Internal Server Error. I even uploaded the new .htaccess file thats included with rc7 and replaced the rc5 version, that didn't solve it, so I added the sitemap's .htaccess file to the bottom of rc7's .htaccess file, uploaded that, still didn't work.

So I finally had to re-install rc5 just to get my forums running.

Also in VB Admin Control Panel, if I attempted to click on: vBSEO Sitemap Reports, I would get an error message.

Does your old .htaccess works with RC7?

What is the message?

You must change htcasess file.

Heres the actual 500 - Internal Server Error message:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@********.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

No, no .htaccess works with rc7, I tried several different combinations.


And also now, it wont even let me go to manage products to import crawlability_vbseo.xml, instead it will give me the same 500 - Internal Server Error message while in VB Admin Control Panel.

Back to RC5 for now.

Please open a support ticket with FTP/admincp access for troubleshooting.

Hi all,

i have the same problem RC7, server error only startup Page.
If i call the forum on /index.php everything O.K .

I change the .htaccess to the RC5 .htaccess and startup Page is O.K.

Now i run .htacces (RC5) and vbseo(RC7), what has changed in .htaccess?
