Question Problem with forum URL

Hello!

I have changed to another host which used Apache, so I have experienced some changes in friendly URLs.

Specifically, old forum URL was www.playstationline.es/ index.php/foro but now it's www.playstationline.es/foro withous "/index.php".
Well, the problem is here; when I go to the current forum URL clicking on item menu "Forum", it shows next page:

Index of /foro

* Parent Directory
* cgi-bin/

However, if I go to Edit the item "forum" and I change Alias from "foro" (forum in spanish) to "foros" or another derivation that won't be exactly "foro", the page is shown correctly.


Thank you very much!

.httaccess file check that it is correct

Hello!

I only renamed htaccess.php to .httaccess

My .httaccess contains:

But I don't know what to do here.

Thank you!

follow read carefully bit at top.. im almost certain this is a sef problem and that would be my guess at the prob..

Hi!

I see... I have tried deleting "Options +FollowSymLinks" and putting # at the beggining, and reseted the SEF url but it still doesn't work (maybe I am doing something wrong)

Thanks!

Problem solved!!

I went to root folder in FTP and deleted "Foro" folder.

Thanks!
