You are trying to get search friendly URLs working. You have been instructed by Google or the technical support department to use the following directives in your .htaccess file:
Options -MultiViews FollowSymLinks
However, every time you use it, you get a HTTP Server 500 error and the page does not load.
Instead, try this:
Options -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
This is the particular case on a Virtualmin server running WHMCS where you want to enable “Full Friendly Rewrite” but it just isn’t working.
