After upgrading to 3.0, i got a 500 error on several requests. Error log:
[alert] [client ip] /path/plugins/.htaccess: Options not allowed here, referer: http://piwik-base-url.de/
In aforementioned file, the last line reads
Options -Indexes
Commenting it out solves the issue, but, as stated in the file, the .htaccess is autogenerated by piwik and so it is no long term solution. what can i do to make sure future updates do not crash my installation?

In my case, I had to remove the Options -Indexes line to get piwik 3.0 to work (after upgrade)

Bug
Afterr upgrading to Piwik 3.0.0 i had the following issues:
```
[Mon Dec 19 … 07:44:46 2016] [alert] [client 88.71.80.126] /data/<docroot>**/piwik/libs/.htaccess: AddHandler not allowed here**, referer: https://piwik.domain.de/index.php?module=CoreUpdater&action=newVersionAvailable
and the next one:
[Mon Dec 19 07:48:42 2016] [alert] [client 88.71.80.126] /data/<docroot>**/piwik/plugins/.htaccess: Options not allowed here**, referer: https://piwik.domain.de/index.php?module=MultiSites&action=index&idSite=1&period=day&date=today
```
I have a Debian Wheezy and a Apache
```
Server version: Apache/2.2.22 (Debian)
Server built: Jul 20 2016 05:07:11
```
As figured out from another one (https://forum.piwik.org/t/internal-server-error-after-upgrade-to-3-0/22163) The Issue is gone, while i comment out the Options Line.
<docroot>/piwik/plugins/.htaccess:
```
<IfModule !mod_version.c>
<IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from All
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
Require all granted
</IfModule>
</IfModule>
</Files>
**#Options -Indexes**
```
The AddHandler Issue i couldn't solve at this point!
<docroot>/piwik/libs/.htaccess:
```
# Serve HTML files as text/html mime type - Note: requires mod_mime apache module!
<IfModule mod_mime.c>
** AddHandler text/html .html **
** AddHandler text/html .htm **
</IfModule>
```
Thank you all very much for your great job with piwik!
Kind regards,
Axel
and i’ve explained how you could change your vhost configuration to solve this issue.
