    Google is literally giving you a heads up to fix any errors.

    Apache Mod Security update, How to Fix ‘Error 406′ or ‘Not Acceptable’ issue
  • Google cannot crawl what it can't process.

    You are not giving us a whole lot of info to go on.

    Just a hunch, but are you running wordpress?
    (One more nail in the coffin...)

    People like to add so much junk (and I mean JUNK) to wordpress...
    so many settings...
    so many plugins...

    Probably something simple, but you would need someone who
    is qualified to have a look at things you have installed, security
    settings, etc.

    Did you recently install or update something for wordpress?

    • Hi Paul,
      No, I did not install or put anything new since May, my site is lovelycaketoppers.com, I use zencart, I just add listings, did not change or do anything else on my site. Google found this errors in Sep.
      should I contact my server to solve this problem?
      Thank you.
