Topic: 406 Not Acceptable error

http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=60361
i found this and asked my host about the problem they replied:

Actually our mod_security "rulesets" are not only up to date but
are updated in live real time daily and doesn't block anything that
isn't deliberately meant to be blocked.

im guessing its punbb? is there anyway i can fix it myself?

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

OK, then one of the rulesets is blocking PunBB inappropriately.

Edit: And after re-reading the ruleset I got corrected before, I FINALLY see where the issue is. I'll ask for them to fix it now

Edit2: Email sent, we'll see what they say

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

Err, the issue is with the mod_security rules, not with PunBB tongue
The fix is a one line change, either adding "chain" properly or just removing one (unnecessary) line completely. Someone just has to read my email first (which they might not do for a bit considering it's the weekend) tongue

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

wait what do i need to tell the host to change mod_security?

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

You shouldn't have to tell them to change anything: if they really keep their rules as up to date as they claim, once the site I emailed corrects the rules you should be fine

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

i see, ill just have to wait then

thanks smartys for your help big_smile

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

GotRoot is the website I'm contacting, since they're where I found the rule last time.
No, I haven't gotten a response. I've sent another email.

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

I just got my email back, the guy that runs the site has been traveling. He says there should be a fixed version released in a day or so

Re: 406 Not Acceptable error

Can you confirm with them that the rule no longer exists?
If it doesn't, clear your cache
If that still doesn't work, ask your host to share with you what rule you're hitting
