I was changing a few basic settings after my bbPress install, the last change bring to nice fancy text permalinks, then bam. 500 Internal Server Error.

I checked my host error log and the error is .’htaccess: Options not allowed here.’

I don’t know a lot about .htaccess but is it something to do with the multiviews? I’ve done a lot of googling but only confusing similar posts seems to come up – hope someone can help?

Url is: http://www.neverenoughnotes.co.uk/forum, .htaccess is t chmod 755

‘# BEGIN bbPress

Just maybe you need to consult to your webhost provider, they surely will assist you.

Or try to edit and entry line by line until you find the problem maker.

Thanks, I’m a bit scared to mess with it…and my hosting – streamline.net are clueless. They are terrible ;( Am only with them as tied to a contract.

Host says:

“We would like to inform you that the only command that is supported with the .htaccess file here in Streamline.Net is basic ‘mod_rewrite’ and the rest is already configured on the server which there is no option to reconfigure it for security purposes.”

I dont even understand this!
