One of our site participants is getting a 406 error that is blocking access. Any suggestions?

I get the same error - only at work. Assumed it was a firewall issue at work.

I get it consistently on my iPhone. It is Error 406 on Safari. I don't have issues on any other device.

406 is generally a server level error where access is blocked by Mod Security (assuming an Unix server).

Depending on the web host, this could be automatically configured based on several things including IP range/location, browser, device type, etc.

The best thing to do for this would be for Yosef (or somebody) to take a look at your IP address and see if it's blocked so they can whitelist it.

I was having the same issue using Safari. Went into Safari under Settings and did the Clear History and Website Data. That cleared up the issue.

I began having the same problem with the 406 error. I went incognito on both my laptop and cell and now have no issues.

Everyone having differing experiences is pointing to a recent update from the web host for their mod_security toolkit.
