    intermittent broken links

    over the last two days I have experienced Broken Links throughout the entire site due to vbSEO ( i disabled it and it worked again).

    I have been running vbSEO for over a month now.. and yesterday all of a sudden all of the links within the forum were broken - so we disabled vbSEO. We re-enabled vbSEO a few hours later and everything seemed okay again.

    About 20 hours later, it happened again. Forum links broke. So once again, we disabled vbSEO and links were okay. I have NOT re-enabled vbSEO as the first couple attempts still produced broken links.

    This seems to be an intermittent issue and I don't know why?... due to Bots?

    any suggestions, much appreciated.

    Forum goes to Page not Found

    Tried this, and it did not help.

    Hello,
    About 20 hours later, it happened again. Forum links broke. So once again, we disabled vbSEO and links were okay. I have NOT re-enabled vbSEO as the first couple attempts still produced broken links.
    do you mean that the problem happens even with vBSEO disabled? Possibly there is a problem with your host?

    no, it is fine when vbSEO is disabled. We had it enabled for over month - no problems. THe other day, all links broke. So , we disabled vbSEO and all links worked again. A couple hours later, just for the heck of it, we re-enabled vbSEO and we had no problems - links worked fine again. however, the next day the same thing happened again - the links all of a sudden broke. So, we disabled vbSEO again (so links will work) and have NOT enabled it since.

    Hence, intermittent.

    Have tried re-enabling a few times since and vbSEO is just dead now. The problem persists.

    Please ask your host whether they changed anything. Make sure that ISAPI_Rewrite module is installed and running correctly (as I see, you are running on Windows/IIS).
