 * I’m having a little problem with the TablePress plugin since the last update.
 * when I change the existing table, an error appears when saving:
   “Attention: Unfortunately,
   an error occurred. There was a problem with the server, HTTP response code 406().”
 * None of the changes can be saved.
   All other plugins work fine
 * Wait for your answer!
   Thanks

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * I’m afraid that this HTTP 406 error indicates a server configuration problem,
   see [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/406](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/406).
 * I therefore recommend to get in touch with the server admin or your webhost’s
   support team. They should be able to find out more from the server error log 
   files, and can then make adjustments to the server configuration.
 * Unfortunately, there’s nothing that I can do about this in TablePress.
 * Regards,
   Tobias

 * I’m having somewhat the same issue. I’m getting “**Unfortunately, an error occurred.
   There was a problem with the server, HTTP response code 403 ().**” but only on
   one specific table (which has been in use for a few years, tried to edit it tonight
   and it won’t save), all the other tables on my site are saving correctly.

 * Hi [@congr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/congr/),
 * indeed this is a similar problem: Here’s your server’s security or firewall software
   are configured too strictly. They don’t seem to like something about the data
   that is sent from your browser to the server (it could be the structure, the 
   size, or even the content of the data). This then triggers a security rule (because
   that software falsely thinks that an attack is happening) and the request is 
   blocked with that “403 Forbidden” server error.
 * You would also need to get in touch with the server admin or the webhost’s support
   team here. They should be able to find the exact cause, and the rule that triggered
   this, in their server error log files. Then, they can adjust the configuration
   so that the false positive is no longer triggered.
 * Regards,
   Tobias

 * Hi,
 * no problem! I hope that this can be resolved on your server!
 * Best wishes,
