How to make .htaccess work in Apache 2.4 (mod_rewrite)?

Question

Apache HTTP Server

Updated Apache to version 2.4, mod_rewrite stopped working. What needs to be changed in the file to make it work with the new version of Apache?
The .htaccess file itself:

AddDefaultCharset utf-8
php_value upload_max_filesize 50M
php_value post_max_size 50M
php_value max_execution_time 10800
php_value max_input_time 10800
php_value date.timezone UTC
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
Options -ExecCGI -Indexes -Includes +FollowSymlinks*
RewriteCond(%.^HTTP) $ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php [L]

In the last lines - there is a redirect to the index file, which does the full parsing of the URL. Previously, this configuration worked fine on different systems.

Answer 1

Everything turned out to be simple, in the site directory we prescribe:
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Require all granted
AllowOverride All
The htaccess file itself does not need to be changed.
