[resolved] wp-cron.php error 406 (2 posts)

    Using 2.1.2, I find numerous entries in my httpd access_log of the form

    1.2.3.4 - - [19/Mar/2007:01:39:45 -0500] "GET /wp-cron.php?check=xxxxxxxxxx HTTP/1.0" 406 342 "-" "-"

    There were 74,000 such entries last week. The IP address is the IP address of my own server. Why is WP calling itself 74000 times a week? And why is it creating an 406 (Not Acceptable) error each time?

    The problem was mod_security. I added stuff to .htaccess that disabled mod_security for wordpress:

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
    SecFilterEngine Off
    SecFilterScanPOST Off
    </IfModule>
