    ISAPI Rewrite on IIS - Having problems

    I've moved my site to a new server. I'm having problems getting ISAPI Rewrite to work on the new server.

    I'm using the ISAPI_Rewrite Lite from Helicon.

    In the properties of the site in IIS, I have a green arrow but no priority.

    When I enable vBSEO in vBulletin the links to the forums don't work - give 404's.

    What could be wrong?

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    please make sure that ISAPI_Rewrite is configured correctly on your server (i.e. any testing rewrite rules are working) before applying vBSEO rewrite rules.

    It isn't configured correctly. That's what I'm trying to figure out. How do I troubleshoot it?

    How did you install it? With the auto installer or manually?

    It will probably be a permissions thingy, I had the same problem. Have you got access to the the server as in RDP? Is it V3 you are using?

    Yes, I have full access to the server.

    What permissions do I need to set?
