bbpress subdirectory install issue - see blank page!

   Hello. I am trying to install bbpress under a WP2.0.5 install at http://www.inkriti.net/wp1/forums/ . I have gone through the documentation for integration at http://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/ and looks like things come up fine.

   However, when i add an entry, or click on a tag (e.g. http://www.inkriti.net/wp1/forums/tags/mytag) i see a blank page! not sure why.
   Its the same issue when I try to click on a forum topic - e.g. http://www.inkriti.net/wp1/forums/topic/2?replies=1

   The variables in the config file are
   $bb->domain = 'http://www.inkriti.net';
   $bb->path = '/wp1/forums/';

   $bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_';
   $bb->wp_home = 'http://www.inkriti.net/wp1';
   $bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://www.inkriti.net/wp1';

   This appears to be a wierd issue - i know i am missing somethign simple. IN particular I see that both $bb->wp_siteurl and $bb->wp_home are different from $bb->domain - could this be it?

   Any help will be appreciated.

   My bad. resolved it -
   http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks

   I had enabled pretty permalinks but had no .htaccess file.
   in the /forums/ directory I created a .htaccess file and added the line
   Options +MultiViews

   as per instructions and it worked like a charm.
