Does the file /usr/share/nginx/html/forum/vbseo.php exist ?

Then you need to add

fastcgi_index  index.php;

inside

        location /forum/ {
            rewrite ^/forum/((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$
                 /forum/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 last;

            error_page  404  = /forum/vbseo.php;
        }

No, this should work with 0.6.34.
