Invalid command 'IndexIgnore'

I just tried to bring up a new domain on a RHES3v3 Plesk Reloaded 7.5.2 server and ran into a concerning bit...

This site has front page extensions enabled and the .htaccess page in /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.net/httpdocs/.htaccess shows:
# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName domain.net
AuthUserFile /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.net/httpdocs/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.net/httpdocs/_vti_pvt/service.grp


but all attempts at access a page result in a server error page.

The error log shows:
[Thu Apr 28 07:44:26 2005] [alert] [client 68.232.111.236] /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.net/httpdocs/.htaccess: Invalid command 'IndexIgnore', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

But if I comment out the IndexIgnore, it works.

Any thoughts on the root issue here?

Thanks in advance,

The contents are correct. Check all your Group ownership on the files.

Group 'psaserv' should be owner for files
 
the permissions look to be correct:

# ls -l .htaccess
-rw-r--r-- 1 rradmin psaserv 393 Apr 28 07:56 .htaccess

but if i turn on FP support it recreates this file and turns:

#IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
back into:
IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

and brings the site down again.

Thoughts?
 
I would try re-installing the frontpage RPM. Was your server 'upgraded' to 7.5.2 from an earlier version?

Many of the problems I have had with other Plesk servers were resolved by using ART's yum repository files. ART is definitely a life saver!
 
i am running a vanilla server that had Plesk 7.5.2 loaded on it...

it looks like it is running the same version of frontpage as ART:
# rpm -q frontpage
frontpage-5.0-70psa.rhel3

I will download it and reinstall it during a maintanence window.

Any other ideas?
