Full Version: Oxwall with myBB forum
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I installed Oxwall under my main directory and it was working great. I installed myBB in a subfolder called 'forum' and kept getting a "page not found" error. So I uninstalled Oxwall and presto the myBB forum showed. I reinstalled Oxwall and tried to access the forum and *poof* "page not found". I'm not trying to integrate myBB INTO Oxwall, I'm trying to have the forum come up in a subfolder.

http://dreadlocks.gi9.co (Shows the Oxwall site)
http://dreadlocks.gi9.co/forum/ (Loads the forum)

Does anyone have any tips or tricks I can use to get it to work???
Try asking at the Oxwall site. It sounds like something is rewriting urls.
I did. I asked my host too.  No one seems to have an answer. :-(
I assume Oxwall uses a .htaccess rewrite to do pretty URLs. Can you post the .htaccess config?

Could you try adding the following before the "RewriteRule"?

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/forum/(.*)

I'm not particularly used to Apache, but I think that's the right syntax.

So you could use that for excluding the forum directory. Euan did say he was not 100% on the syntax
It's fixed. Yay!! Thank you. Leefish are you stalking me? Hahahaha
