    Hi Everyone.

    First, I apologise for another “406 error-type post.” I promise that I have looked everywhere and I cannot find a solution for my problem but I simply don’t know enough about the issue to solve it on my own.

    To begin:

    – I have been using WordPress combined with Jetpack for as long as Jetpack has existed and I have never had this trouble before.

    – I originally had WP installed on a subdomain but I wanted to move it to my root directory to make it cleaner.

    – I followed all the necessary steps to move your dB, blog, etc. When I went to active Jetpack, it asked me whether or not I wanted to authorize or deny, of course I authorized it.

    – That’s when I got my “406 error:”

    Not Acceptable

    An appropriate representation of the requested resource /wp-admin/admin.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.

    There it is in all it’s ugliness.

    Anyway,

    – I deleted everything, thinking I’d made an error. Then I re-installed and I still got that error when I tried to authorize Jetpack.

    – Interestingly, Jetpack was still working on my subdomain without any issues.

    – I thought maybe it would work on another subdomain. I had another blog on another subdomain that didn’t have Jetpack, so I added Jetpack to that WP blog– I GOT THE SAME 406 ERROR!!

    – Long story short, I’m at the end of my rope with this. I have read some about mod_security and editing .htaccess files and I admit that I don’t know enough about these things to feel I can do this on my own. So, any and all help is much appreciated.

    Also, even when Jetpack is the only plugin and I change to my original theme (to one that worked with Jetpack) that didn’t help fix the problem either.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    I don’t know why the website for the plugin is at the bottom of my post, apologies on that!

    Hi Mr. Herve,

    First, thanks for your reply and I’m sorry that I didn’t respond sooner– in fact, I kept looking at my account info on WP.org and it didn’t tell me there were any responses to my post! I should’ve just checked the post itself, lol.

    Second, the problem has been solved and it had nothing to do with Jetpack at all (I was never convinced there was a problem with Jetpack, but someone in another forum/thread that I had created said I should probably post my tech issue to the plugin forum). It was the infamous mod_security giving me trouble! My hosting company has been kind enough to help me out and the problem, is solved!

    Thank you so much for your help, though. I really do appreciate it! (:

    Have a nice day!
