Ok, I am up and running on localhost. It has been a while but its fine.

Only one thing I need to understand. I merged the 2 .htaccess files together placing the WAMP server .htaccess before the vb htaccess. It was simple.

I will place a copy here for anyone who may have the same trouble.

Code:

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Server root folder www .htaccess

# This file provides server security limiting access to the localhost only.

# Comment next four lines to deactivate. (Allows external access)

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Order Deny,Allow

Deny from all

Allow from 127.0.0.1

Allow from ::1



#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# To allow execution of cgi scripts in this directory uncomment next two lines.

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------



AddHandler cgi-script .pl .cgi

Options +ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks



#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Activate this section to use the Private Server Feature!

# Defaults: Username - root; Password - root

# Note AuthUserFile: File path is relative to server root

# To lock server, uncomment the next 4 lines. (A name and password is required)

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------



#AuthName "Uniform Server - Server Access"

#AuthType Basic

#AuthUserFile ../../../htpasswd/www/.htpasswd

#Require valid-user



<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png)$

       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

       RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?routestring=$1 [L,QSA]



       # Because admincp is an actual directory.

       RewriteRule ^(admincp/)$ index.php?routestring=$1 [L,QSA]

Also, could somebody look at this to tell me if all is well? The site seems to work and be ready for development (again) but maybe there is something in the code that i should be wary of?

Thanks...
