htaccess problem with real subdirectory

[wcardinal]

how do I stop the htaccess for esyndicat from blocking access to a real subdirectory.

I installed a forum to /forum -- but I get a 404 error (error.php?error=404) unless I access it as forum/index.php

Hi wcardinal and welcome,

Please try to add following code to your eSyndiCat .htaccess

Options -MultiViews

[wcardinal]

no, that didn't do it.
