Please check if there is already a file called

Please try adding $Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = false; to your config file.

If there is a file called /conf/config.php, append the line above to that file. Otherwise add the line above to the /conf/config-defaults.php file.

Reload your homepage and give feedback if you see a working forum then with working links.

You need Apaches mod_rewrite. Even if it is enabled there are problems sometimes and you would need an older version of the .htaccess file, but more on that after you reported if the above config setting solved your problem

I config this solution. It's successful !

Thank you @R_J

It's a workaround, not a solution

I guess you would prefer to have "pretty" urls - urls without an "index.php?p=" in it. You need the Apache mod_rewrite module for that. If you do not have it, you will always see that "index.php". If you do have mod_rewrite enabled, follow the steps below to get pretty urls.

Please set $Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = true; in your /conf/config.php file (use config.php even if you made the initial change in the config-defaults.php!)

Then edit the /.htaccess file and change the # RewriteBase / to RewriteBase /vanilla.

Reload your forum in your browser and click on some links.

Is everything working as expected? Yes? Great, you're welcome.
If not, please proceed...

Exchange the contents of your /.htaccess with this file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vanilla/vanilla/release/2.2/.htaccess

Is everything working as expected? Yes? Great, you're welcome.
If not, please proceed...

Open your new /.htaccess file and change the # RewriteBase / to RewriteBase /vanilla.

Now everything should be okay...
