New Posts link throws an error

[setishock]

VB 4 version 4.1.2 PL8
Shared hosting.
Problem occurs with all themes including default VB theme.
When the "New Posts" link is clicked on, I get routed to a page with this error.

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@computervitals.org and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I can't find anything related to it's setup in the ACP. Might be looking right at it and not seeing it. Any ideas what's causing this error? How to fix it?

If it can't be fixed, how do you disable the function or disable the link?

You need to get the error from your server error logs, that message is to generic.

look at your htaccess. You might have the problem in there if you are using it to redirect that link

[setishock]

How do I disable the link?

[ozzy47]

What about the server error logs?

[Lionel]

Why don't you remove that htaccess and see if it works. If it does then you worry about disabling it. If it does not then it was not that

The top 2 are when I clicked on the link and then went back to see the error. The 14:28 was the last time I clicked the link so that's the freshest data I have.
That came out of cpanel. If I need to contact my host let me know.

This is the htacess file.

The wallbase.net is when I turned on the antileach in cpanel last night and added a redirect link. I disabled that but looks like the rule remains. I can just edit that line out, right?
The problem was there before I did the antileach. Matter of fact the new posts link has never worked.
I'm using friendly url's. Could that be the problem? Maybe it doesn't work in that mode. ???

Hmmmm, I don't see anything that stands out, but I am no expert either.

[setishock]

Ok so what template has the link in it so I can disable it?

What version of vB4 are you running? I assume you want to remove the New Posts link?
