 * i was having the same issue…this helped me fix the issue: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-yoast-google-analytics-save-settings-page-not-found](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-yoast-google-analytics-save-settings-page-not-found)
 * i too contacted my web host provider…they white-listed a rule that was causing
   the issue…i was able to authenticate successfully w/out having the page not found
   error pop up.

 * Hi there,
    If this solved your issues, please ask your host which mod_security
   rule they whitelisted. We’d love to reduce the need to do this if possible

 * I’m trying to get my web host to help, but they don’t seem to know what to do.

 * [@cuthza](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cuthza/) Tell them about mod_security
   and white listed your website.
    If they still don’t know what to do then change
   your web hosting service.

 * So it worked for me once my webhost temporarily disabled ModSecurity, if that
   helps anyone.
