redirect loop after upgrade to vb 4.1.3

I upgraded and now I'm getting a redirect loop on the index page. Everything else works fine. I notice if I refresh twice the second time the url is showing up without the rewrite (it's supposed to be /forums/, shows up as /forums/index.php). Also the vbseo tab has disappeared from the admincp, however it's still installed and I can visit it by typing in the url directly.

Please make sure you didn't disable plugins via config.php

Mert,

I'm searching includes/config.php, I can't find that option anywhere.

Please create a support ticket with ftp , admincp and vBSEO Cp login details

Mert,

I've done that. Thanks

I may be experiencing the same "loop" in vb 4.13.

When I visit:

Code:

http://www.chromebookuser.com/tags/
http://www.chromebookuser.com/groups/

Firefox says,

Code:

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

Any ideas? Here's my .htaccess

Code:

# 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

#rewritecond %{http_host} ^chromebookuser.com [nc]
#rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.chromebookuser.com/$1 [r=301,nc] 

# 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\.yourdomain\.com
#RewriteRule (.*) http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/$1 [L,R=301]

RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|cron|vbseo_sitemap|api\.php)
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]

Hello,

Please try setting up your "Custom Doc Root" setting in vBSEO CP:

General Settings -> vBSEO Options -> Advanced Settings tab -> Custom Doc Root

It should be the full path to your site, i.e. /home/user/public_html

and if needed, set also your Define vBSEO Custom Relative Doc Root. It is needed if your forum resides in a folder like forums.

Example:

Custom Doc Root: /home/user/public_html
Define vBSEO Custom Relative Doc Root : /forum/

If that doesn't work, please create a support ticket with FTP, Admin CP and vBSEO CP login details for troubleshooting.

Thanks. I tried your suggestions but there was no change. I had already created a ticket.
