I'm trying to apply these instructions to a test vb 4.2.5 site but I can't get past changing the Friendly URL's from Basic to Mod Rewrite Friendly Rules. When I do this I lose access to my forums. I can display the forum home, but when I click on any forum or category below that I get the following message:

Code:

Not Found
The requested URL /vb/forums/7-xxxxx was not found on this server.

Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at thetestsite.org Port 80

My current .htaccess file is:

Code:

# To redirect all users to access the site WITH and WITHOUT the www. prefix
# to the /vb subdirectory

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.thetestsite\.org$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://thetestsite.org/$1 [L,R=301]

redirect /index.html http://thetestsite.org/vb/index.php

Where am I going wrong?
