Installation under SilverStripe | incorrect .htaccess redirect?

[Mondi]

Hi all -

We installed vB5.2.2. under a Silverstripe installation in a '/community' folder, which should give members access to our forum following http://e-lumini.com/community

However, Silverstripe's .httaccess presumably appends this url incorrectly to http://e-lumini.com/community/?url=/community which, of course, makes the forum inaccessible. Although this question should perhaps better be asked at Silverstripe communities I am just wondering whether one of you are much cleverer than I am with .htaccess structures and contents and could possibly help me pull this redirect issue back on track..?

**** SS .htaccess contents *****

### SILVERSTRIPE START ###
# Deny access to templates (but allow from localhost)
<Files *.ss>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Files>

# Deny access to IIS configuration
<Files web.config>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Files>

# Deny access to YAML configuration files which might include sensitive information
<Files *.yml>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</Files>

# Route errors to static pages automatically generated by SilverStripe
ErrorDocument 404 /assets/error-404.html
ErrorDocument 500 /assets/error-500.html

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

# Turn off index.php handling requests to the homepage fixes issue in apache >=2.4
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex disabled
</IfModule>

SetEnv HTTP_MOD_REWRITE On
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase '/'



# Deny access to potentially sensitive files and folders
RewriteRule ^vendor(/|$) - [F,L,NC]
RewriteRule silverstripe-cache(/|$) - [F,L,NC]
RewriteRule composer\.(json|lock) - [F,L,NC]

# Process through SilverStripe if no file with the requested name exists.
# Pass through the original path as a query parameter, and retain the existing parameters.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* framework/main.php?url=%1 [QSA]
</IfModule>
### SILVERSTRIPE END ###

Many thanks in advance for your assistance!

Add the code below at the top of your forums .htaccess file.

RewriteEngine Off

Hey Seven Skins - cheers for responding to my post.

I am actually thinking the 'blockage' sits within the SS .htaccess file above; not in that of the forum's './community' installation. There are a few 'denies' in there which may need to be appended to include that community's folder name.

A little reluctant to 'off' the community's htaccess file for now.

Looking for alternatives now....

Cheers mate!

You can put this near the top of your SS .htaccess file and this should ignore the community folder.

RewriteRule ^community - [L,NC]

Nope - ain't happy. Now running into a 403. Wrecking my brains now Seven Skins.

.htaccess now looks:
