    404 Not Found Error

    Good day, I just installed the vbulletin on my site, it shows the forumhome but when i click on a forum or thread it get the following errors. Any help would be much appreciated

    The requested URL /display.php was not found on this server.
    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    There is no display.php file in vB.

        Do you have a SEO mod installed and/or a .htacess file in place that rewrites your URLs? This sounds as if the links you click are correct but then get redirected to display.php (which is not a vbulletin file, as Steve said). May it be that you have a badly constructed rule that wants to rewrite yourdomain.com/forum to yourdomain, and in the process also removes the forum from forumdisplay?

          Hello, I dont have an SEO mod, but there is a .htaccess file in my root directory of my forum. Would it help to past the contents of the .htaccess file in here to check, this is a bit above my basic knowledge or would this be a web host issue.

            cellarius, no worries, i just fixed the problem, i did go into the .htaccess file to see if i could decipher it, there was a rewrite script in there. I deleted it and upload back and it displays the threads. Thanks for the help.
