I want to enable "Enable Spider-friendly URLs", but there is something with path_info. I have a server running Redhat ES3, how and where can i set this path_info so i can use "Spider-friendly URL's" ? When i use this setting now it doesn't work (404 error?).

This was working great in UBB classic, got alot of traffic out of Google!

Thanks in advance.

Let's check to see if PATH_INFO is working at all. Try creating a small php script on your site with this inside of it:

<?
echo $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];
?>

name it test.php and then bring it up in your browser like this:

http://www.yourdomain.com/test.php/1/2/3/4

See if that prints out anything at all.

this is what I get

/1/2/3/4

Is that what is to be expected?

Yes, if you are getting that output, then PATH_INFO is definitely working as it should be.
