I'm having trouble getting the mod rewrite to work properly on a clean 4.2 suite install, but only for the CMS (articles) section.
It's set to mod rewrite.
vb is installed in the /forum/ directory.
Currently, there is nothing in the root directory, but I'd like to have the CMS at the root.
All the links (forum, what's new, usercp, blogs, etc...) work fine w/ the mod rewrite. However, it is only the Articles (or CMS) that doesn't work, and it returns a 404 page not found error. The url that it goes to is mysite.com/forum/content.php
Did I do something wrong?
I did edit the sample .htaccess by uncommenting 2 lines (but am not sure if I should have):
# If you are having problems or are using VirtualDocumentRoot, uncomment this line and set it to your forum component directory.
RewriteBase /forum/
# If you are having problems with the rewrite from content/ to content.php, uncomment this line to turn MultiViews off.
Options -MultiViews

I think I resolved this on my own. I explained what I did in this post: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php/402164-CMS-in-root-FORUM-in-forum-directory
