Greetings,
On my newly-set forums, I properly configured the .htaccess file and enabled Friendly URLs, but everything's (besides the main pages) returning an 404 error.

-

It is indeed set on an APACHE server.
Any idea ?

Thank you.

EDIT: Okay, so adding "RewriteBase /" works, but I was just wondering if leaving this line of code would have an impact on the performance of the server, like pages loading taking longer ?

glad that you have resolved it Smile defining RewriteBase is required on some servers to use ReWriteRule URLs

A site will see insignificant server performance degradation from Rewrite base.
