Getting 404 errors.
Hi,
I am getting the 404 errors whenever i click on any forum or post.
I've done what you mentioned in troubleshooting about 'RewriteBase',but still the same errors.

The .htaccess file is -

Quote:
# Comment the following line (add '#' at the beginning)
# to disable mod_rewrite functions.
# Please note: you still need to disable the hack in
# the vBSEO control panel to stop url rewrites.
RewriteEngine On
#Some servers require the Rewritebase directive to be
#enabled (remove '#' at the beginning to activate)
#Please note: when enabled, you must include the path
#to your root vB folder (i.e. RewriteBase /forums/)
RewriteBase /
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.webmasters-forum\.org
#RewriteRule (.*) http://www.webmasters-forum.org/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|cron)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?)?)$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]
Plz help me.

My forum url - webmasters-forum.org

At present I've turned off the vbseo plugin.

Remove the # sign in front of RewriteCond & RewriteRule

Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.webmasters-forum\.org
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.webmasters-forum.org/$1 [L,R=301]

However, you need to make sure that your host has mod_rewrite enabled.

If rewrite urls are enabled, and after removing the # signs did not work, add Options +FollowSymLinks at the top of your .htaccess.

As far as I know, IIS servers do not support .htaccess and this is one of the many reasons why 95% of the hosting companies use an Unix system for webhosting because of Apache, more precisely, because of .htaccess and many things it has to offer that IIS does not.

In summary, you cannot use vBSEO rewriting rules on an IIS server. You have to find a new host or disable vBSEO rewriting rules. However, these rewriting rules are crucial to your SEO score, just like every other feature of vBSEO.

InterServed is one that I'd recommend, because they even offer database migration which means that they can switch from your old host to their new one. However, I am not certain that they have done this with Windows-to-Linux but you could always ask! They have outstanding uptimes, speeds, and everything is just great. Try browsing Mafia Multiplayer and judge it by yourself!

They've done this with mine, flawlessly. In less than 30 minutes, I was already running with InterServed!

Hello Raman ,

On IIS servers you need to have ISAPI_Rewrite tool installed on your server. You can download the latest version from : ISAPI_Rewrite 3 - Apache mod_rewrite compatible module for IIS Once you install ISAPI_Rewrite please follow the instructions inside readme.html ( other services )
