Some .htaccess code is supported on Acquia's managed Drupal platforms, while other .htaccess code is not. See below for details. 

Supported
---------

*   In the `.htaccess` provided by Drupal, we support everything Drupal requires, include Rewrites, which [we have documentation about for redirects](/node/56302).
*   [The use of environment variables in .htaccess](/node/56164).
*   [Restricting access in various ways](/node/56140).

Unsupported 
------------

*   `Options +Indexes` which on other platforms will list the files inside a directory. That will not result in an error, but due to security concerns it will have no effect.
*   `DirectoryIndex` is also not supported for the same reason.
