I’ve seen this question asked several times as I have been searching but nobody answers it or they offer to look at the site and never post results. And, it appears this isn’t an isolated issue, so I will ask it again and hopefully somebody can provide some suggestions.

ibProArcade 2.6.1 installed on clean 3.6.5 test board – no other hacks installed, no other modifications installed. Just the standard board without any alterations.

Followed all install instructions for 3.6.5
Arcade folder to forum root
AdminCp to Admincp folder
Includes/xml to includes/xml folder
Arcade.php to root
CHMOD 0777 arcade directory and subfolders – not files
Installed product
Modified template
Set up all required items in Arcade per instructions.
Opened up Arcade and all looks good, until...
I link on one of the titles starting at the top: The Arcade (9 Games)
Down to and including Information about Tournaments in the Arcade.
The links take me to an entirely different location, actually, page 404
Shown as this link:

The requested URL /forum/index.phpforums/arcade.php was not found on this server.

Clearly, bold part is not part of my url.

Below that section all links work fine. All links work fine in Adimcp too

Anybody have this and/or discover the fix?

========================================

Not because there has been no answer, I understand this can take time, but I took this a step further and deleted the entire test board and re-installed it so I could ensure it wasn’t something left over from another test.

Anyway, new test board with no installs and same problem. Can upload games and play, but not from “arcade link” upper half of screen (as described in prior post).

problem was a wrong setting in vBulletin-options, bburl was set to the index.php and not just the path to it

Isn’t that something? I simply changed the default board url from

http://www.yourboard.com/forum

to /forum and the problem is fixed. Works great now!

Thanks. :)

Yes, you should never add "index.php" to the bburl-setting :)

Anyway, I now implemented a detection for this failure in upcoming v2.6.2+ so that it will auto-correct this ;)
