.htaccess: Option FollowSymlinks not allowed here

[pixelpadre]

So, I did a new install and transferred everything over from my old CWP to my new CWP.  One site works fine on the old CWP but the new CWP I get this error.

.htaccess: Option FollowSymlinks not allowed here

I presume there is a difference in the apache configuration between the old and the new.

Any ideas.

Yes, FollowSymLinks was disabled by default.

Yes, FollowSymLinks was disabled by default.

And what is the right way to revert it to enable again? I can edit the vhost but on each update is overwrited...

Thank you!

I think, that default is enabled or at least you can add:
SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
when the owner is the same it will work.
