"Options -Indexes" gives 500.
Is this a known problem, or have I done something wrong?
might be your server config... what's your server details? also, i assume you are talking about the root level .htaccess file?

The problem occurs in all folders with Options -Indexes enabled.
Did you add -indexes before rewriteEngine on ?
Nope, haven't done anything with it (except commenting out Options -Indexes). It is fresh out of GS.
I tried to add it though, but still got 500.

Is "Options -Indexes" necessary? Or can I just leave it commented-out.
Ohhh I didn't realize you have the problem with default .htaccess.
Options -Indexes isn't necessary. It just forbids browsing the directories content from within web browser.
Most hosting companies turn this option by default in apache webserver, thus users do not need to do it on their own.
