I moved to a new server with a new install of centos 7 on lamp.

I transferred my forum and database to the new server and now I am getting this error.


.htaccess: Option FollowSymlinks not allowed here

Is there an optimum work around for this?

Hi,

have you tried?:

Options +FollowSymLinks +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

or

Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

And maybe there is a problem with the apache conf or the httpd conf. Check them.

There is not a problem with apache. I am using centos CWP control panel.  Their latest version intentionally disallowed symlinks because they see it as a security issue.  This could be a trend I would imagine.

Ok, but....

do you fix the problem? (with the symlinks)
