Internal Server Error after Upgrade to 3.0

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?

Hello @hans-spiess
Can you please create bug report @ Issues · piwik/piwik · GitHub and we will investigate a fix for the future version to prevent this problem.
Thanks for this!

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

Had the same problem and reinstalled three times after i came up with your solution. Thanks and hope this will be fixed in the next update.

Hello

can you please upgrade to 3.0.1-b1 where this should be fixed?

Kind regards,
