Hello,

First of all Apache on Directadmin server built with CustomBuild already has mod_expires enabled, check and see:

/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/configure/ap2/configure.apache:

Code: 
        "--enable-proxy" \
[B]        "--enable-expires" \[/B]
        "--enable-reqtimeout" \

and:

Code: 
# apachectl -M 2>&1 | grep expires
[B] expires_module (static)[/B]

Secondly your config file is missing "" a previous line.
 
I was testing all posibilites with "" and del sign / and still error
In my case mod_expires not working, beacause I want use browser cache and add into htaccess special code and this not work.
My file (last lines):
#!/bin/sh
"./configure" \
"--libexecdir=/usr/lib/apache" \
"--libdir=/usr/lib/apache" \
"--mandir=/usr/share/man" \
"--datadir=/var/www" \
"--localstatedir=/var" \
"--enable-logio" \
"--enable-ssl" \
"--enable-rewrite" \
"--enable-proxy" \
"--enable-expires" \
"--enable-reqtimeout" \
"--with-ssl=/usr" \
"--enable-headers"

My .htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType image/jpg "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access 1 year"

Are you sure that your apache is built without expires module?

Are you using NGINX in front-of Apache? You need to tune NGINX not Apache if you have nginx+apache setup.

The char \ (back-slash) should be used, it is not the same as / (forward-slash). And no white-space should precede a back-slash, only a line-break.

I guess the forums ate my \ (back-slash) in my previous reply.
 
Yeap I have add code into .htaccess and in pagespeed insights I have error with browser caching (same code I have add to another server and there's working)

I'm using only apache. Custombuild -> Edit Options -> WEB Server Settings: Apache ver2.4

apachectl -M
expires_module (static)

Again, by the default mod expires is installed and enabled in Apache.

Make sure that the URLs which are not cached are hosted on the same server and are not loaded from remote servers that you don't control.
