User Blog mod install with AutoMod: Cannot locate .htaccess

Postby Mythyn » Fri Jun 11, 2010 4:37 pm

Hi,

Sorry I feel silly for this question... I'm trying to install viewtopic.php?f=41&t=433.
I use PHPBB3.0.7 PL1, PHP5, MySQL 5.0.83-log. When I try to install the user blog mod Auto mod indicates an error 'Cannot locate .htaccess' eventhough there is a .htaccess file for my website, although in a different folder:
mywebsite.com/.htaccess
mywebsite.com/forum

Any reason why this would happen?

I then tried adding a .htaccess in the forum folder which worked but returned another error, I've joined a screen cap.

What should I do?

Thank you for your help!
Best regards,
M

Copy the .htaccess file from a new phpBB3 download, put it in your forum directory, and try again.

Hi,

Seems there is no .htaccess file im the latest dl of PHPBB. I did look for one but I can't find it.
During my search I found this topic: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... 5&start=15
I guess that means I'm missing the actuall usuall phpbb code inside the .htaccess, but I have no idea what it would be.

So now I put a whole new .htaccess in /forum/, its empty, and when I try to install AutoMod responds:
'
Information

AutoMOD was unable to open ./../.htaccess.

Hey,

it's ok I figured it out! I realised that the .htaccess was in the folder I just can't see it, so I got it to show on my Mac osx files and reuploaded it and it all worked. The only thing I'm concerned with is that although I did dl the latest UMIL I was told that I needed the latest version...

Thank you!
