406 Not Acceptable Error Page

Post by PGlad »

Hello

I have just installed the latest version (1.10.3) using:
Apache version 2.2.19
PHP version 5.2.9
MySQL version 5.0.95-community
on Linux.

While browsing through the admin pages, for instance if I click on the 'edit' button in 'Layout - Stylesheets', and then click 'Cancel' after the page loads, I keep getting this:

"Not Acceptable
An appropriate representation of the requested resource /cms/admin/editcss.php could not be found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

This happens in quite a lot of places within admin, even though I am not actually making any edits. Is this a bug in the software?

Make sure mod_security is disabled on this host. CMSMS does not support mod_security (or at least the overly anal rules people tend to put into it).

Please post system information from "Extensions >> System Information" (there is a bbcode option) on all posts asking for assistance.

If you can't bother explaining your problem well, you shouldn't expect much in the way of assistance.

Apparently my account was 'triggering a mod security rule' when I tried to make changes in admin. This has now been bypasssed and the site is working fine. Thanks for your help.
