If you set the base url in settings.php you should not need to modify the .htaccess file.

Quoting Albert Cuesta acuesta@gmail.com:
As part of a Drupal 5.x to 6.x upgrade, I have moved my Drupal site to a folder below the HTML root level of my server, so now it's at public_html/drupal6 instead of public_html as before.
Is there a reason why you can't update the httpd.conf for the site so that the DocumentRoot is public_html/drupal6 instead of public_html?
Now the site stopped working beyond the front page: users can login but cannot logout, all links display an unthemed front page, and so on
Can somebody explain the required configuration of .htaccess (for the domain root and the drupal6 folder) and settings.php so the site works again? I think I have already tried everything in the handbook and readme :-(
Cache tables, sessions table probably need to be truncated. Browser caches may need to be emptied as well. Did you change the RewriteBase in the .htaccess file?
