Hello,

I am trying to update my web installing an SMF forum with the module SMFFORUM.

The problem is that drupal is installed on the root folder and it shows a 404 error for all the subfolders, as everybody knows.

I have tried to make all the solutions showed here in docs or in the forum, and the only thing i have get is an error 500 on the page.

The solution to shows index.html doesnt work as i need to access the install.php at the first time.

I need help.

I am thinking to move all the site to another folder but it must be the latest solution...
I have tried to delete the htaccess at all, broken my site for a while and nothing, error 500 internal server is showed.

I dont mind to power off the site sometime, but it is not working and now i dont know where to look or what to do.

Thank you.

Generally any php application should work fine in a subdirectory under Drupal. For non-php applications you need a DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm line in .htaccess.

You only get a 404 error if the subdirectory is empty, or if the subdirectory contains an application with an index file which is not specified in DirectoryIndex.
