Not Acceptable 503 Error

I recently installed 7.6 patched 3.1 on my new domain and I never had this problem before on test sites but Ive never really went live with this version but anyway. In forum management when I try to delete a forum category I get a page that says An appropriate representation of the requested resource modules/Forums/admin/admin_forums.php could not be found on this server.
When I try to delete or edit and save a downloads category it says the same thing excpet for admin.php. I can delete blocks, forums, and a few other things but not those things nor saving or modifying them. I have nuke sentinel 2.42, cnbya 4.42, arcade v.3.02, and nsn supporters1.30 installed as extra modules. I have checked all my file edits and they are fine. Could this be something with the php or sql on the server, as it is a new server but there are other nuke sites on the server? Or is it something I have done wrong? I hope someone knows this one, I searched and did not see this anywhere.
Thanks in advance.

From everything I've read it seems that your MySQL server may be at fault. Are you limited at all in your bandwidth or queries/hour? Using phpMyAdmin, run a CHECK on all your tables. Do any list anything other than OK? If so, try running a REPAIR on them.

I had just found ouit what it was mod_security on the server. I suppose that an apache script. I told my server admin and he fixed it. Said he usually keeps it high to prevent the entire sql server from being exploited. Anyway, I say someone may run into this same prob sooner or later, so if they do, its mod_security
Thanks

Thanks for the follow-up! Glad to hear you're running mod_security. It is indeed an Apache module that is very important in protecting your Apache server.
