    Cool sub domains using pointers not working .

    main site is on line - vBSEO - other 2 bit the dust .. .

    am not sure how to fix the other 2 sites that are being effected by the re wright rules that are being used . no changes or additions have been made to them .

    web hosting allows us to have different domains using domain pointers .

    the main site gfxstyles . com is in the root /public_html ( forums - homepage ect -

    have 2 other sites that are also off of public_html where all of the files for vBulletin and associated programs are .

    works fine - on line gfxstyles.com
    /public_html
    /public_html/ all the vBulletin directories and then some for gfxstyles.com
    (VBSEO is installed on this site in the root)
    aMember with vBulletin integration installed also and works fine.


    internal server error - even the redirect php file - gfxstyles.net
    /public_html/SITE_GFXstyles.net
    /public_html/SITE_GFXstyles.net/test_vB
    /public_html/SITE_GFXstyles.net/test_vB/ and all of its' directories.
    (.htaccess of course)

    internal server error - gfxutopia.com
    /public_html/SITE_GFX_utopia.com
    /public_html/SITE_GFX_utopia.com/ all the vBulletin directories .

    the 2 sites are within the main sites root and now give me internal server errors .
    calling them by the domain name .

    if the htaccess file is removed , they will both will work again and the main site wont' - ( did not try disabling the plug in as dont' plan on removing VBSEO )

    do i need to add a re wright rule to the main htaccess file from VBSEO ?
    if so what ? and where in the file - top , bottom or ?
    am a copy and paste when it comes to major coding

    add a htaccess file in each of the domains main directories ?
    if so what ? there are no htaccess files in them .

    any help is welcomed to overcome this problem .

    Hello Kenj,

    please try to create .htaccess file in your "domain pointer" subfolders with this line:
    Code:
    RewriteEngine off
