    File does not exist: photos/files/[F,NC]

    Maybe not strictly vBSEO-related, but I cannot find a file with this in so...

    An excerpt from my error logs:
    File does not exist: /home/nzboards/public_html/photos/files/[F,NC]
    /images/steelpurple/misc/page_bottom.gif/
    Note the extra / in the bottom one.

    Could this possibly be caused by vBSEO (specially the second one, it has only cropped up recently)?

    And...what would be the syntax for me to grep my site from the root folder? I have SSH.

    Do these files actually exist?

    You can try searching for this in your vB templates (in admincp).

    No... no files exist named [F,NC] (no extension) .. I am assuming that is coming from a php file or htaccess or something.

    I have already searched my templates, I am now looking for the correct grep command to run to search my files.

    Wow, really big bump! This is still occuring.. is there anything within vBSEO that does an htaccess redirect with the [F,NC] tag?

    this definitly looks like a malformed line somewhere in .htaccess....
    maybe you could post it up?

    Hmmm... so I do have one in photos/files/ ..

    Code:
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?nzboards.com(/)?.*$ [NC]
    RewriteRule .*\.(avi|AVI|bmp|BMP|gif|GIF|jpeg|JPEG|jpg|JPG|midi|MIDI|mp3|MP3|mpeg|MPEG|mpg|MPG|png|PNG|ram|RAM|wav|WAV|wma|WMA|wmv|WMV)$ [F,NC]
    Looks like hotlink protection, yeah?

    sure does....

    .... and that appears to be the line causing the issue .... however, it looks fine to me in all honestly.


    Is hotlinking an issue for you?
    You could try renaming this temporarily and see if it resolves the issue.
