Ivan.
Thank you for your response.
I've solved the problem and it was due to some php rules that were included
in the gotroot rules I downloaded. I do not use php.
I have created a custom rulset with some of the examples from the gotroot
folks, many thanks!
At this time the errors are gone and I have put mod_security into
production. I had a few malicious attempts this past weekend. These attempt=
s
are now being blocked. Before mod_security I had the hardest time doing
anything with POST URL's in apache.
Thank you.
David
