I have installed YAF on a server with iis 7. The installation went okay but I cannot click any any links without getting a 404 error. At first I thought I had no access to the pages directory but I ruled that out by adding an html page and calling it with ~/pages/test.html. I have to insert the pages directory in the url or I get a 404 error. I cannot insert the pages directory into the url for other pages withouth getting a 404 error. So my thoughts are that there is a configuration missing or something configured incorrectly. Does anyone know why this is happening? Thanks in advance.

Do you mean the links inside the forum didn't work, or other urls from your site? The problem is that all urls are handled via the urlrewriter. in your case you need to open the urlrewriter.config and change the line... [code=markup] [/code] to... [code=markup] [/code]

YAF is the website. I have not added it to another site. It may have something to do with the server I was using (What, I do not know). I moved the YAF site to a different server and all is working.

Does it work when you disable url rewriting [code=markup] [/code]

To the Web.config file?

When I add that to the Web.config file, the site will not run.

Sorry I forgot to mention you need to add it to the app.config
