HTTP 406 Error while posting using blogdesk.
I’m having weird problem while posting to my wordpress blog using blogdesk.
HTTP Errorcode: 406
NONE ACCEPTABLE
Googling around and the solution given is to add a few line in htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
I’ve update my htaccess file using that solution but no luck.I’m having 500 Internal server error instead after the changes.
Change htaccess file in root folder also give me same error.
I still can post using wordpress interface, but it is quite some time I have not using this features.
Any solution my dear friend ?
SOLVED. I don’t know what is the root cause. I have not done any changes since my previous attempt failed. maybe my hosting provided did something.

That was because of your host was using mod security 2. I’ve written about it and a workaround at
