Broken Graphics with Apache Linux Servers with Mod Security On

I was installing LW Forum from http://www.phpsns.com mods for phpfox and encountered broken graphics via the Quick Reply part of the mod / forum:

Here is the fix to create a .htaccess file and place it in the graphics directory:

I have the solution for the Broken Graphics, has to do with Mod Security, I built a .htaccess file and planted it in the graphics directory and it works:

*** Now I just need the 100% Table width resolved when reading a post as a member.

Here is the solution to Broken Graphics on servers with Mod Security Enabled:

================================================== =======

HTTP 406 Not Acceptable error – Mod Security

SolutionQuite often serves have a module running called mod_security. This has been known to prevent access to certain areas of CubeCart which the server mistakenly thinks are not secure for one reason or another.

On some servers this can be fixed by creating a file called htaccess.txt on your local computer. Make sure it has the content:

SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off

================================================== ======

Cheers!

Went well.

2 issues

1) All Icons are broken in the Quick Reply , verifed the path that the script calls and the graphic is there. Also forced Binary upload , check permissions on all folds down the path to the graphic and they all have Read Permissions.

2) Screen width when viewing a forum post blows out to 100% for members, would like that to stay within the boundries of phpfox table width.

I have sent in an open ticket.

Anyone else let me know

Thanks!

Dave
