Hi guys,

Got a bit of a problem. Installed bbpress integrated it into wordpress got all the bits right so it uses my wordpress database and wordpress logins etc and thats all fine and dandy but none of my pages load.

I can only get to my bb-admin pages but only by going to the direct section say “appearance” I get a page 404 error when I go to http://www.londonmuscle.com/blog/forum/ or http://www.londonmuscle.com/blog/forum/bb-admin/

I havent actually done anything but follow the bb press install instructions so wondered why its not working.

Anyone able to help, Really need to get it sorted asap as this is quite a big part of our business.

Regards,

Chris

There’s some kind of odd redirect thing going on… I get sent to a longer url:

http://www.londonmuscle.com/blog/forum/bb-login.php?re=/blog/forum/bb-admin/

I dunno what that might mean, but could be some clue to the problem in there…

The forum comes up if you use this URL which is the index page for the forum directory:

http://www.londonmuscle.com/blog/forum/index.php

I see you’re on IIS. Do you need to set the default index page to index.php or something? This has happened a couple times that I know of recently.

The odd redirect thing is not really, it looks normal to me. When you try to access bb-admin directly, and you’re not logged in, you get redirected to bb-login.php, with the query string ?re= redirecting you to where you initially wanted to go. It works like that in WordPress too.

Try accessing wp-admin on the same site without being logged in:
