    Hie I am having this problem while i am trying to post media or my post when i click PUBLISH. I’ve been reading the historical post on this failure however I do not understand the content. It mentioned about .htaccess in your wp-admin/ directory:

    create a text file on your desktop:

    put the following inside it:

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
    SecFilterInheritance Off
    </IfModule>

    However I do not know how to do it. Could anyone please feedback as I couldnt start anything until this is fixed.

    I tried install and uninstall many many times but still having the same issue.

    Thank you very much
    Tricia

    Tricia…

    As I mentioned in in this post, adding the filter in your .htaccess file is futile, since Mod_security no longer allows for disabling by this method since v2.5.

    What you need to do instead, as confirmed in the subsequent post, is to send a message to your hosting service tech support and request them to edit the httpd.conf file for your site to have mod_security disabled.

    I hope it works out for you. Post back here if it resolves the issue. GL! 🙂

    Tricia, btw, WordPress should have automatically created/updated the .htaccess file during installation. To see if you have one, use an FTP client or cPanel file manager to view/edit the directory structure and files in your hosted space. There’s likely no need for you to create it manually, and again no need to add the filter, since it will do no good, anyway. If you do need to create a .htaccess file, read this post.
