I have a drupal site but want to install phpbb3 under /forums. With clean urls, it will always redirect to the home page. I want to exclude /forums from the rewrite. Is this possible?

Let me check my setup to see how I did that, I don't think I used the path redirect module. I did something with virtual hosts I think.

I didn't make any changes. I think the issue may be that /forums may be internal Drupal path. Did you try disabling the Drupal forum module in core if you're not using it? That should force a 404 redirect but if you have your phbb3 installation below your Drupal root, Apache should find it. Also, check your Error reporting for 404 redirects. Do you have it set to go to the home page?

It redirects to the homepage for any page that doesn't exist in drupal. I am also trying to use /newsletter for phpmailinglist and that also redirects to the home page instead of going to the mailing list's setup.
