Error 406 Not Acceptable was created by malone
Hello

Firstly I apologize for my English, because do not speak the language and I'm using Google Translator.

I installed the component and created the first form without problems and errors.

Hitherto had approved the component, but the second form, after all the added fields, I set up the advanced form, but when I select "Use plugin Spambotcheck" or "Use Captcha" with "Captcha Visforms" option in any browser returns me "Error 406 not Acceptable" and does not save changes.
Code:
Not Acceptable An appropriate representation of the requested resource /site/index.php/component/visforms/send could not be found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

How to solve this?

Hi malone,

which Joomla! Version do you use, which Version of Visforms?

:idea: I recommend you the new and up-to-date documentation for Joomla 5:
docs.joomla-5.visforms.vi-solutions.de/en/docs/
Most of this also applies retrospectively to Joomla 4.
Please only ask 1 question per topic :-).

Hi malone,

for I have never heard of that problem with visforms before I did some research on the error message on Google.

Here is what I found.
The message comes from the Apache mod_security. This mod_security is set up by your provider (webhosting service provider). It is very unlikely that the error comes from a bug in visforms in the first place. So maybe you have a problem with your provider (or a corrupted/hacked) website.

You could contact your provider about the problem or try if the website works on another server from another (free) provider (which is very likely).

Regards,
Aicha
