    Is there some way to apply -Indexes inside ISPC or /etc/apache2 for all the sites?

    I tried this inside /etc/apache2/apache2.conf but thinking it was an atrocity and yes apache don't like it:
    Code:
    <Directory /var/www/*/web/>
        Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
        Require all granted
</Directory>

    This is not defined by ISPConfig, so you will find it in one of the global apache files. Use the command:

    grep -n Indexes /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

    to find where the Indexes setting is defined globally and change it there. If its not in apache2.conf, then you can search for it globally with:

    grep -rn Indexes /etc/apache2/

    sorry, it was just a syntax error.. I forget when using "-" then rest of options needs "+".
    So writing "Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks" breaks apache. It should be:
    Code:
    <Directory /var/www/>
        Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
        Require all granted
</Directory>
    and then also adding below the first idea it works, without need to touch the previous section:
    Code:
    
<Directory /var/www/*/web/>
        Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
        Require all granted
</Directory>
    good to know.

    edit: it doesn't work. It seems the first one is mandatory over the second one.

    Thanks anyway!
