When you don't have access to the error.log file, you can always setup a local wamp or xampp server. This is more or less what I do, to test and see what's going on.
In your case, the error message is
[core:alert] [pid 10504] [client ::1:57830] /var/www/htaccess-test/office/.htaccess: Missing envariable expression for SetEnvIfNoCase
Looking at SetEnvIfNoCase
Syntax: SetEnvIfNoCase attribute regex [!]env-variable[=value] [[!]env-variable[=value]] ...
and comparing it to the directive in your .htaccess file
SetEnvIfNoCase ^(Accept-EncodXng|X-cept-Encoding|X{15}|~{15}|-{15})$ ^((gzip|deflate)\s*,?\s*)+|[X~-]{4,13}$
shows, that there are two arguments, where at least three are required. attribute and regex are there, but no environment variable is defined.
When I first looked at this issue, I missed the line below SetEnvIfNoCase
SetEnvIfNoCase ^(Accept-EncodXng|X-cept-Encoding|X{15}|~{15}|-{15})$ ^((gzip|deflate)\s*,?\s*)+|[X~-]{4,13}$
HAVE_Accept-Encoding
When I join these two lines, it becomes
SetEnvIfNoCase ^(Accept-EncodXng|X-cept-Encoding|X{15}|~{15}|-{15})$ ^((gzip|deflate)\s*,?\s*)+|[X~-]{4,13}$ HAVE_Accept-Encoding
and the error is gone (at least in my environment).
