I really wish I could say that this worked, but sadly it did not.

I made the changes to my .htaccess file in the root, and the root site still worked (which is good), then added back in the .htaccess file to my /Forum folder, but still got the 500 error. Even when removing all but the /Forum in the line added above in the root .htaccess.

I’ll try anything you care to suggest though, so don’t give up and I won’t!
