Fixing Wordpress Error 406

Posted by Alberto - 14/05/09 at 09:05:06 pm

Let me guess: you are trying to edit posts or pages in your Wordpress blog and you got “Error 406, Not Acceptable. An appropriate representation of the requested resource /wp-admin/post.php could not be found on this server”. Ok, dont panic, lets fix it.

In the root directory of your Wordpress installation, you should have a file called “.htaccess”. You have to edit this file, adding the following line:

SecFilterEngine off

With this single line, your blog will work perfectly.

  1. I edited the .htaccess as you said, but now I’m getting a 500 Internal Server Error, and my whole webpage gets me the same error, no matter if I’m trying to acces forum, blog, or index page. I edited the .htaccess file again, so I don’t get 500 IS Error… but I still need to post via MS Word, without getting that 406 error… any idea? Thanks ;)
