.htaccess “Options not allowed here”

Question

I have this in my .htaccess:

Options +FollowSymLinks

And I get the following error in the apache error_log:

.htaccess: Options not allowed he         


        

Answer 1

Change Options +FollowSymLinks into Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch in all instances of .htaccess file, the followsymlinks has been disabled on many server due to security risk.
