Options +Indexes will not show filenames

Question

How can I show file names in the directory listing on apache server.

I am using

Options +Indexes

I have also tried

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

in the root but I am not able to see file names only an empty structure

There are 4-5 files of different names and extension available in the folder.

If you're unable to generate auto index even after dabbling with file permissions; it is generally all thanks to IndexIgnore directive.

Check your server settings, going one step above from the current htaccess at a time. See where you encounter it.
