Edit Create an  htaccess file inside  galerias with this   Options -Indexes   Directory browsing is provided by the mod autoindex module

Open Your  htaccess file and enter the following code in  Options -Indexes   Make sure you hit the ENTER key  or RETURN key if you use a Mac  after entering the  Options -Indexes  words so that the file ends with a blank line

If you choose to modify your httpd conf file to solve this and you have multiple Options directives  then you must add a - or a   before each directive   Example  Options -Indexes  FollowSymLinks

To complete  GauravKachhadiya s answer    IndexIgnore   jpg   means  hide only  jpg extension files from indexing    IndexIgnore directive uses wildcard expression to match against directories and files    a star character   it matches any charactes in a string  eg   foo or foo extension  in the following example  we are going to turn off the directory listing  no files or dirs will appear in the index    IndexIgnore     Or if you want to hide spacific files   in the directory listing  then we can use  IndexIgnore   php     php     matches a string that starts with any char and ends with  php  The example above hides all files that end with  php

The best way to do this is disable it with webserver apache2  In my Ubuntu 14 X - open  etc apache2 apache2 conf change from    lt Directory  var www  gt          Options Indexes FollowSymLinks         AllowOverride None         Require all granted  lt  Directory gt    to   lt Directory  var www  gt          Options FollowSymLinks         AllowOverride None         Require all granted  lt  Directory gt    then restart apache by   sudo service apache2 reload   This will disable directory listing from all folder that apache2 serves

Apart from the aformentioned two methods  edit  etc apache2 apache2 conf or add Options -Indexes in  htaccess file   here is another one  a2dismod autoindex   Restart the apache2 server afterwards  sudo service apache2 restart

This is not an answer  just my experience   On my Ubuntu 12 04 apache2  didn t find Indexes in either apache2 conf or httpd conf  luckily I found it in sites-available default  After removing it  now it doesn t see directory listing   May have to do it for sites-available default-ssl

You can place an empty file called index html into each directory that you don t want listed  This has several advantages    It  usually  requires zero configuration on the server   It will keep working  even if the server administrator decides to use  AllowOverride None  in the the server configuration   If you use  htaccess files  this can lead to lots of  Error 500 - internal server error  messages for your users     It also allows you to move your files from one server to the next  again without having to mess with the apache configuration    Theoretically  the autoindexing might be triggered by a different file  this is controlled by the DirectoryIndex option   but I have yet to encounter this in the real world
