How to configure Vue router history mode in Apache

I'm getting this error when I try to add the line below on my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase /
  RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>

Syntax error on line 228 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
RewriteBase: only valid in per-directory config files

I'm using Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS 8)

The only thing I changed in my httpd folder are:

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName masterseller.ph
    Redirect permanent / https://masterseller.ph
</VirtualHost>

and

/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:

<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/masterseller/dist/"
... (+ SSL configs)
</VirtualHost>

Oh btw I'm trying to deploy my vue dist folder (which is also my DocumentRoot).

My Vue-Rounter:

const router = new VueRouter({
     mode: "history", 
     base: "/",
     routes
});

I'm trying to follow and understand this instruction: https://router.vuejs.org/guide/essentials/history-mode.html#example-server-configurations

I tried to add 'FallbackResource /index.html' at the end of my httpd.conf file, It worked, but I wouldn't be able to access my phpmyadmin page.

What am I mising? I'm new to all this.

Thank you in advance for your answers (also my boss doesn't want the hash mode for the vue router)

The error means the config won't work in the base config file. In Apache you can also place a "per-directory" configuration in each directory.

Create a new .htaccess file in the dist root and place the configuration in it.

The .htaccess Apache docs say:

.htaccess files (or "distributed configuration files") provide a way to make configuration changes on a per-directory basis. A file, containing one or more configuration directives, is placed in a particular document directory, and the directives apply to that directory, and all subdirectories thereof.
