Portal has vanished

I have PHPbb installed under /forum directory, the portal was working great. I decided to redirect so the website works without /forum at the end: www[dot]d2kgaming[dot]net but since then the portal has vanished. Any ideas?

Make sure your .htaccess is edited as instructed by install.xml.

.htaccess file has changed.
Where should I add this? because when I add it after "common.php' website gets an error:
Code: Select all
<![CDATA[DirectoryIndex portal.php index.php index.html index.htm]]>
This is the .htaccess file as of now:
Code: Select all
DirectoryIndex index.php portal.php index.html index.htm
#
# Uncomment the statement below if you want to make use of
# HTTP authentication and it does not already work.
# This could be required if you are for example using PHP via Apache CGI.
#
#<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
#RewriteEngine on
#RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
#</IfModule>
<Files "config.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>
<Files "common.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>

update: Portal works if I type it in manually : d2kgaming[dot]net/portal.php
I had my website redirected from d2kgaming[dot]net/forum to d2kgaming[dot]net, portal directory is under /forum
Is this a simple .htaccess redirect issue?

Code: Select all
DirectoryIndex index.php portal.php index.html index.htm
That's your problem. portal.php needs to be in front of index.php.

I just tried:
Code: Select all
DirectoryIndex portal.php index.php index.html index.htm
Still no luck.

Problem fixed, .htaccess file that I needed to change was in the /forum directory which looked like this:
I changed it to
Code: Select all
DirectoryIndex portal.php index.php
Problem fixed.
Thanks MARC
