Upgraded, but have a problem.

I run sitemap generator and it went all well. When I click on the link of newly generated sitemap, I received error 403.
Then, I change the location for sitemap in the setting, and run it again. But same error occured. Found out that it generated the sitemap inside vbseo_sitemap/data folder..
I tried to access it via http, but still received error 403. the folder has been CHMOD to 777. Dont know why it cant be access.

can you help me with this vbseo?

@Oleg, I leave the Sitemap Files URL blank. It generated the file yes, but when I click on "Your Google Sitemap Index URL: http://www.yoursite.com/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz" The link brought me to 404 page.

As described? Where?

I haven't change the path, should I still create the .htaccess file? What should the .htaccess contain for this?

Thanks

My htaccess file contains:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*).html(.*)$ $1.php?$2=$3&$4=$5&$6=$7&$8=$9&$10=$11&$12=$13$14
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*).html(.*)$ $1.php?$2=$3&$4=$5&$6=$7&$8=$9&$10=$11$12
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*).html(.*)$ $1.php?$2=$3&$4=$5&$6=$7&$8=$9$10
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*).html(.*)$ $1.php?$2=$3&$4=$5&$6=$7$8
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)_(.*)-(.*)_(.*).html(.*)$ $1.php?$2=$3&$4=$5$6
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)_(.*).html(.*)$ $1.php?$2=$3$4
RewriteRule ^(.*).html$ $1.php
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

I removed RewriteBase / and it cause me an internal server error 500

my sitemap located at this location

http://www.animeheist.com/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz

Another question, why is only google notified and not yahoo? Is there something I need to do to submit/notify other search engine such as ask.com?
I thought this version has them included?
