Options FollowSymlinks in htaccess causes error 500
« on: February 14, 2019, 01:45:57 PM »
Hi. The websites ceased to open giving error message 500. By practical consideration found out that it is guilty of this htaccess with the Options FollowSymlinks parameter
At other forums advise in the httpd.conf file to change AllowOverride value with none to All.
I made it, restarted service Apache, but I continue to receive error 500. Work of the website is recovered if to comment out the line Options FollowSymlink (that received a look: #Options FollowSymlink)
Whether it is possible to solve as that it a problem?

*************************************************
Привет. Перестали открываться сайты выдавая ошибку 500. Опытным путём выяснил, что виноват в этом htaccess с параметром Options +FollowSymlinks
На других форумах советуют в файле httpd.conf изменить значение AllowOverride с none на All.
Я это сделал, перезапустил службу Apache, но продолжаю получать ошибку 500. Работа сайта восстанавливается если закомментировать строку Options +FollowSymlink (чтобы получила вид: #Options +FollowSymlink)
Можно ли решить как-то это проблему?

this is security defined in apache vhost and you don't need to use follow symlinks as this is a security issue which can be used to hack full server from a single domain , you can use instead
