   I have a website with separate installs of Wordpress and Phpbb.

   Wordpress is installed in the root directory, Phpbb is installed in the forum directory.

   I *do not* want to integrate the two.

   The problem is when I try to access domainname.com/forum - I get a 404 error message. Wordpress seems to take over everything. (The forum itself installed fine. No problems there. Wordpress works fine too.)

   Wordpress htaccess code:

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>

   # END WordPress

   I tried this for the forum, put it in the root htaccess file as well as the forum root, but no luck.

   #forum

   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /forum/
   RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /forum/index\.php\ HTTP/
   RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://domainname.com/forum/ [R=301,L]
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /forum/index.php [L]
   </IfModule>

   #End forum

   Does anyone have any ideas of what I can try in my htaccess file? Everything I've searched for on Google or this site talks about integrating WP and Phpbb and is no help.

   Thank you.
