having 406 error in wordpress blog : mod_security Prb I'm getting this 406 error in my blog. I read about this and learned that this error is related to Apache mod called "mod_security". I tried to turn it off for my site using .htaccess file by <IfModule mod_security.c> SecFilterEngine Off SecFilterScanPOST Off </IfModule> But it didn't work. So how to get this sort this out ? Asking Hosting provider to turn it off is out of question .Already asked but they don't want. I was told they are trying to find a way to sort this out but it takes time and im having a blog full of errors which wont be great for my Google ranking... Is there anything I can do to get it sorted out ? .
yeah, ask your host which file is being blocked - Then get them to add it into exceptions. if your host can't satisfy your security needs, as well as manage there own web security module - i would be worried of the server systems.
Well that hosts support seems to be crappy anyway its a cheap host should expect I have moved the blog to my godaddy hosting account where it works fine.
