I am having the same problem.. I have followed the FAQ Permalinks and still cannot get it to work.

I have set $bb->mod_rewrite = true;

I have tried writting my .htaccess with:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

Options +MultiViews

</IfModule>

I have also tried what was outputed from the “bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php”:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^forum/([0-9]+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^forum/([0-9]+)$ /forum.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^topic/([0-9]+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /topic.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^topic/([0-9]+)$ /topic.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^tags/(.+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /tags.php?tag=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^tags/(.+)/?$ /tags.php?tag=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^tags/?$ /tags.php [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([0-9]+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /profile.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([0-9]+)/([a-z]+)$ /profile.php?id=$1&tab=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([0-9]+)/([a-z]+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /profile.php?id=$1&tab=$2&page=$3 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([0-9]+)$ /profile.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^view/([a-z-]+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /view.php?view=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^view/([a-z-]+)$ /view.php?view=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/$ /rss.php [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/forum/([0-9]+)$ /rss.php?forum=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/topic/([0-9]+)$ /rss.php?topic=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/tags/([a-z]+)$ /rss.php?tag=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/profile/([0-9]+)$ /rss.php?profile=$1 [L,QSA]

</IfModule>

In either case I get a 404 error so i set $bb->mod_rewrite = false; until I can get this resolved.
