also im running the latest version of b2evo, i have also tried different themes

Your feed URLs redirect to the home page. Check feed settings on Blog settings > Advanced tab

Thanks for that the feed URLs were blank I pasted in what it said my original URLs were but still it's the same, any other ideas?

I tried also removing. Htaccess but no luck

Can you post .htaccess file here? If it's not .htaccess then there's something wrong with Apache config.

Here's the .htaccess, it should be the same as the stock one that comes with it. My site has cpanel which i originally used to setup b2evolution, then i upgraded that to the latest version and it was working. Thanks for your help.

# Apache configuration for the blog folder
# Lines starting with # are considered as comments.

# PHP SECURITY:
# this will make register globals off in the evo directory
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
	php_flag register_globals off
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
	php_flag register_globals off
</IfModule>

# PHP5
# This may need to be in each folder:
# AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php

# CLEAN URLS:
# If you're using Apache 2, you may wish to try this if clean URLs don't work:
# AcceptPathInfo	On


# DEFAULT DOCUMENT TO DISPLAY:
# this will select the default blog template to be displayed
# if the URL is just .../blogs/
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
	DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
</IfModule>


# CATCH EVERYTHING INTO B2EVO:
# The following will allow you to have a blog running right off the site root,
# using index.php as a stub but not showing it in the URLs.
# This will add support for URLs like:  http://example.com/2006/08/29/post-title
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
	RewriteEngine On

	# This line may be needed or not.
	# enabling this would prevent running ina subdir like /blog/index.php
	# This has been disabled in v 4.0.0-alpha. Please let us know if you find it needs to be enabled.
	# RewriteBase /

	# Redirect anything that's not an existing directory or file to index.php:
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
	RewriteRule ^ index.php
</IfModule>

my cpanel tells me it's running apache 1.3.41 & PHP 5.2.12

Apache 1.3.41 is extremely old. Do you have an option to use the latest version 2.2 ?

By the way RSS settings fields should be blank by default, you should only change them if you want to use external feeds.

yeh, i just found the issue, i installed an old mobile plugin i had turned it off before and it didn't do anything, i ended up turning it off then changing the blog url settings back to "default blog in index.php"

I will ask my provider to upgrade apache if they can, is the latest version best to use with b2evo?

THanks for all your help.

The latest stable version of any software is better than old and outdated.

The Mobile plugin was made for b2evo 2 and even at that time was unstable :(
