Having Problems with WordPress… Any suggestions?

For the last few days, I am having a problem with the Word Press. It appears that a post above a particular size is not getting published or updated.

If I post a screenshot image this post also cannot be uploaded.

The error message says

Quote

Not Acceptable

An appropriate representation of the requested resource /wp/wp-admin/post.php could not be found on this server. Additionally, a 406 Not Acceptable error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Unquote

Can anybody suggest how this can be rectified?

Help will be highly appreciated.

P.S: The problem was identified as a Mod Security on the server. Has been set right now.

    Looks like a modsecurity issue. You can try this after backing up the original config files:
