Bug upgraded to most recent version of dbseo product and now forum urls are not working

Not open for further replies.
I updated to the latest version to try and escape a myfilestore redirect compromise and learned that all my redirect URLs just don't work, they dump into the home page. If I leave the product on, but turn off SEO URL rewrite specifically, then it works the old fashioned way. Any idea what I might be able to do to get this working again?
 
What version were you upgrading from? Can you try opening the readme.txt file and check the alternate rewrite rules and use them instead just in case that works better for you?
 
Hmm, could you try the Clear System Cache option in the DBSEO CP and see if that works for you?
 
Could you please create and PM me with a temporary FTP and AdminCP account?

For security reasons, we recommend you create a new FTP account only for DBTech support, then disable or delete it after we have both confirmed the issue has been solved and there are no further issues.

The same applies to AdminCP accounts; they should ideally be temporary accounts created for us only. If we have created an account on your site already, you can optionally boost that account to Administrator and then de-admin this account once the issue has been solved.

If you use a .htaccess password protection for your AdminCP directory, it is recommended that you create a new authorised user for DBTech and remove this user once the issue has been solved.

Please test any temporary accounts you create to ensure that the FTP account has access to the forum files, and that the AdminCP account can access the administrative controls for the product we are assisting you with.

Ensuring this is all in order before submitting the information will significantly speed up the process of assisting you. We will alert you via PM if there's any issues with the login information you have provided.

When sending the PM, for your security you should also un-tick the "Save a copy in my Sent Items folder" checkbox. When the access details have been received, we will delete the PM from our inbox. Ensuring you have not kept a copy of the PM reduces the risk of security breaches.

Thank you for helping us debug our products and allowing us to assist you, we appreciate it :D
 
This was due to the vBSEO config file being saved in an incorrect format (possibly a very old version of vBSEO?) which caused the importer to import the Custom Rewrite Rules incorrectly.

I've resolved this issue and your site now loads as normal (disregarding the malicious content warning in Google Chrome, of course) :)
 
Where is there a remaining vbseo config file? Any chance you can give me some more details about where this was located and what was done?

THank you very much!

There was no remaining vBSEO file, I meant that when importing, the Custom Rewrite Rules, Custom Character Filter and Custom 301 Redirects did not import correctly, so I fixed them, and that fixed the issue :)
