htaccess not working on /usr/local/apache/htdocs

Hi I'm using

RewriteEngine on
Options -Multiviews
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]


as an example but it is not getting redirected.

Why are you trying to use the pageholder/Main website?

From what I have noticed that directory/site doesn't have any permissions for PHP or .htaccess

We just have a generic HTML file that replaced the Default one.
