带有响应CMS的mod_rewrite

So I am trying to try out http://respondcms.com/ and I have got most of it installed and have got to directing my web server to: respondurl/test to test all of my settings.

The only one that is not working correctly is mod_rewrite It gives me no other errors.

I tried following the instructions here: http://respondcms.com/documentation/troubleshooting-installation but I received the following errors:

Server error!

 The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request.

 Error message: 
  /services/users/zstorage10p4/site_directory_hidden/atomplex/.htaccess:AllowOverride not allowed here

 If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

The instructions tell me to add the following to my .htaccess

Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride FileInfo Options all

AllowOverride is not permitted in .htaccess. If those instructions really are what you say they are, they're wrong.

AllowOverride is a directive to be used in the <directory> sections of the main Apache configuration files to indicate which directives are permitted in .htaccess in that directory.

The Apache reference is here
