    Forums hang

    I upgraded to 3.5, then installed vbSEO uploading in binary, used the plugins option to install...

    But the forums simply hang - whenever I have the vbSEO plugin selected as active, the forums simply don't load - no error message, the page load simply hangs.

    I've looked at the troubleshooting guide and uncommented the .htaccess line for "RewriteBase" and the folder used, ie, "RewriteBase/forum" but no change.

    I can't even access the vbseo control panel.

    Any helpful suggestions welcome.

    Hello Brian,

    What kind of error do you get when trying to access vbseocp.php?

    Do you have access to your httpd.conf file?

    About the only error I could get was a time-out error.

    The server has Zend and Ioncube installed, so I used the Zend form. No idea what's happening, though.

    Ok, try adding a rewrite rule (within .htaccess) like this:
    Code:
    RewriteRule ^(hello/)$ http://www.google.com [L]
    then visit directory 'hello', it should redirect you to google.

    If the above doesn't work, ensure that your httpd.conf directives allow per-directory mod_rewrite directives in .htaccess file(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/how...l#troubleshoot)

    Let me know if this helps

    That redirects to Google...

    I had placed the .htaccess file in the forum folder - that's when it would hang.

    I since tried the .htaccess in the site root, with RewriteBase designating the forum folder - but this simply lead to a 500 error.

    I already have a directory and news section using mod_rewrite from the site root - I believe it is an apache mod_rewrite module as well so I don;t understand why it's not behaving.
