Under Apache 2+ you can simply do as below (Using Linux Terminal):

sudo a2enmod rewrite && sudo service apache2 restart

sudo a2enmod rewrite && sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

the Header directive is in the mod_headers apache module. You need to make sure that module is loaded into the apache server.

I just had the same problem while upgrading from openSUSE 13.2 to openSUSE Leap 42.1.

The problem is not a missing module in the apache2-configuration.

The problem is the upgrade from apache 2.2 to apache 2.4. "Order" and "Allow" have to be rewritten as follows (example):

in 2.2:

Order allow,deny
Allow from all

in 2.4:

Require all granted
