XF 1.4 Friendly URL's - Not Found

For the last 30 minutes I've been looking at other post trying to correct my Friendly URL's. Nothing is working, maybe it's because of all the special things I have.

Here is my details:
  • I'm using Xenporta
  • Index Page Route set to "portal/" in Basic Board Information
  • My host does have the write-read- thing on.
My .htaccess file looks like this:
Code:
#    Mod_security can interfere with uploading of content such as attachments. If you
#    cannot attach files, remove the "#" from the lines below.
#<IfModule mod_security.c>
#    SecFilterEngine Off
#    SecFilterScanPOST Off
#</IfModule>

ErrorDocument 401 default
ErrorDocument 403 default
ErrorDocument 404 default
ErrorDocument 500 default

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On

    #    If you are having problems with the rewrite rules, remove the "#" from the
    #    line that begins "RewriteBase" below. You will also have to change the path
    #    of the rewrite to reflect the path to your XenForo installation.
    RewriteBase /public

    #    This line may be needed to enable WebDAV editing with PHP as a CGI.
    #RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
        RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
        RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
    RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
    RewriteRule ^(data/|js/|styles/|install/|favicon\.ico|crossdomain\.xml|robots\.txt) - [NC,L]
    RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
</IfModule>

I'm running Apache with CPanel. Any idea as to why this isn't working?

Start with the default .htaccess file from the XF zip file.

Your RewriteBase appears wrong, and the https rule placement is wrong. Start with the default file to make sure that works.
 
Well, this alone will break friendly URLs:

Rich (BB code):
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
        RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
        RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
    RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]

You have inserted a custom rewrite rule between the "do nothing" rule and its conditions. The result will be that ALL friendly URLs do nothing because they all hit that "do nothing" rule because it has no conditions anymore because your custom rule hijacked those conditions.
