 * Hi there,
 * I am on the latest version of WordPress – and I cannot get past the http error.
   when uploading images / media in wp-admin.
 * Any ideas? Here’s what I have done:
 * – Cleared cache in WP and browser (chrome)
    – Checked php safemode off – Added
   correct htaccess details
 *     ```
       AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
       AddDefaultCharset utf-8
   
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteRule \.shtml$ /index.php [L,R=301]
   
       php_value upload_max_filesize 20M
       php_value post_max_size 20M
       php_value max_execution_time 200
       php_value max_input_time 200
   
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\/sitemanager
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URL} !uploads/bind
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
   
       # END WordPress
   
       <IfModule mod_security.c>
       <Files async-upload.php>
       SecFilterEngine Off
       SecFilterScanPOST Off
       </Files>
       </IfModule>
   
       <IfModule mod_env.c>
           SetEnv MODSEC_ENABLE Off
           PassEnv MODSEC_ENABLE
       </IfModule>
       ```

 * First, do ensure that the `# BEGIN WordPress ... # END WordPress` block is always
   the very **last** entry in your .htaccess file. Next, have a word with your hosts
   to see if you can find out if mod_security really is the issue here.
