Mod Rewrite Friendly URLs => .htaccess

[spiderweb]

I get nothing but 404 errors on all url's when I try to turn this on. Apache restarts with no errors and rewrite is functioning.

In file: /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/sneaker-groups.com
2: <VirtualHost *:80>
20: RewriteEngine On
25: RewriteRule ^includes/(.*) index.php
26: RewriteRule ^vb/(.*) index.php
27: RewriteRule ^packages/(.*) index.php

32: RewriteRule ^members/([0-9]+) member.php?u=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
33: RewriteRule ^forums/([0-9]+)(?:/?$|(?:-[^/]+))(?:/?$|(?:/page([0-9]+)?)) forumdisplay.php?f=$1&page=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}

I'm getting an issue with blog categories. I can choose the category from the main blog page (i.e ./blog.php) and it links fine but when I choose a blog category from a members page I get a 404. I've submitted a bug report here but I think it could be the mod rewrite as it works when I change to advanced friendly urls.

What's the diference between this one and the .htaccess provided by vbulletin?

In early betas vB did not provide a .htaccess.

Hey all, I have tried all different variations and cant seem to get it to work with my live site. Allthough I have a test site on another domain and this one worked great,

RewriteEngine on

# If you are having problems or are using VirtualDocumentRoot, uncomment this line and set it to your vBulletin directory.
# RewriteBase /forum/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d

RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]

RewriteRule ^threads/([0-9]+)(?:/?$|(?:-[^/]+))(?:/?$|(?:/page([0-9]+)?)) showthread.php?t=$1&page=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^forums/([0-9]+)(?:/?$|(?:-[^/]+))(?:/?$|(?:/page([0-9]+)?)) forumdisplay.php?f=$1&page=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^members/([0-9]+) member.php?u=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^blogs/([0-9]+)(?:/?$|(?:-[^/]+))(?:/?$|(?:/page([0-9]+)?)) blog.php?u=$1&page=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^entries/([0-9]+)(?:/?$|(?:-[^/]+))(?:/?$|(?:/page([0-9]+)?)) entry.php?b=$1&page=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d

RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]

RewriteRule ^(?:(.*?)/)(.*)$ $1.php?r=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}

It just wont work on my Live site.

It does work on the threads but not on the forums??

There is a htaccess file included with vb4 gold...
Look in the do_not_upload folder, I think it's do_not_upload/rewrite/apache/.htaccess.
If you're using IIS then look in the IIS folder instead of apache.

Is ISS a windows server? The file I posted above worked on my test server, on the same system, just a different domain. I have also used the one in the do_not_upload folder same thing.

im lost as to why this won't work when the server has the mod rewrite enabled cause the other forum(3.8 that someone else owns) on it has vbseo and its working fine but not this, any really big ideas? im /forums/forums/thread information when trying it with anything mentioned.

[Skyrider]

I was hoping someone could help me... Everytime I check a section, I'm getting /forum/, EG:

http://forum.xxxxx.com/forums/4-ESF-Chat

Can I change the /forum/ in the end and or remove it? It doesn't fit with a http://forum.x subdomain.

[iyama]

I'm getting this: The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. In the browser.

info:
Shared server
htacces 1.6 used
Placed file in www.myforum.info/forum and on www.myforum.info directory
