maximum number of internal redirects reached

Code:

mod_rewrite: maximum number of internal redirects reached. Assuming configuration error. Use 'RewriteOptions MaxRedirects' to increase the limit if neccessary

this is the problem after merged 2 vBulletin into one and modified the .htaccess with

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.site.ext
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.site.ext/forum1/$1 [L,R=301]

(ref: moved from subdomain, which 301? )
vBulletin+vbseo seems to work fine, but other subdomains of the site are down. How to solve the situation?
Thanks!

p.s. I have root access, and directadmin panel

Do you have any .htaccess in www.site.ext root?

yes, .htaccess in the root with vbseo default .htaccesse + rules against spam bot :

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(sitemap.*\.(xml\.gz|txt))$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} (admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1 [L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !vbseourl=

But why do you have vBSEO rewrite rules in the root if you have forums installed in forum1/ folder?

no, I moved the vBulletin forum into the root, and one of this is forum1. Before the board was at forum.magnaromagna.it, now is www.magnaromagna.it/portale.php , and one of this is www.magnaromagna.it/forum/

(in the same I merged in ristoranti.magnaromagna.it, and now one of the board is www.magnaromagna.it/guida-ristoranti/ )

Ah, ok. Please create .htaccess files in every subdomain folder with one line:

Code:

RewriteEngine off
