[mod-security-users] Frontpage 406 error caused by mod_security

[<ch...@bl...>]

Hi,

I am recieving a 406 error when attempting to publish to a FrontPage subweb.
This error does not happen when someone is publishing to the root web.

The error Frontpage shows is:

406 Not Acceptable
Not Acceptable An appropriate representation of the requested resource
/Deb/_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.exe could not be found on this server.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at deb.terzano.com Port 80


The resulting error log shows the following:

[Wed Apr 27 00:08:16 2005] [error] [client 68.192.115.60] mod_security:
Access denied with code 406. Pattern match

So with Frontpage (v. 2000) they can do everything as normal to the root
web.  In the subwebs you can change security permissions, create new
directories, and even new subwebs of subwebs, but you cannot save a new or
edited page.

Any ideas?

Thx,

Don
