.htaccess without matching ifmodule? - apache

Question

I am trying to deploy a laravel api with apache, but I am constant getting "internal server error".In errorlog, error is defined with "C:/Apache24/htdocs/ErenA/public/.htaccess: without matching section". I tried changing .htaccess file, delete the ifmodule element in httpd.conf and keeping only "directory index index.html index.php" but nothing seems to working
so here is my .htaccess code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^public
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
# Send Requests To Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
And Also I will add httpd.conf ifModule:
<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
</IfModule>
All AllowOverride is All and require all is granted in config file.
Can someone please help me?

You have 2 IfModule closing (</IfModule>), but only 1 opens <IfModule dir_module>
So your content should be like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^public
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
# Send Requests To Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
See that I have removed the middle </IfModule> and because you continue using Rewrite module (RewriteCond and RewriteRule), I just put those inside...
