Hello,
I installed the latest version on the site of Aphrodite and once I put on my server all files / root, so I launched my browser the name of my site. Automatically, I got this error:
error 406
not Acceptable
An Appropriate representation of the requested resource / installation / index.php could not be found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was Encountered while trying to use ErrorDocument to handle the year request.
How can this be repaired please? thank you,

Communicate with the web hosting provider. Below i attach some information about this error.
HTTP Error 406 Not acceptable
Introduction
A client (e.g. your Web browser) can indicate to the Web server (running the Web site) the characteristics of the data it will accept back from the Web server. This is done using 'accept headers' of the following types:
Accept: The MIME types accepted by the client. For example, a browser may only accept back types of data (HTML files, GIF files etc.) it knows how to process.
Accept-Charset: The character sets accepted by the client.
Accept-Encoding: The data encoding accepted by the client e.g. the file formats it understands.
Accept-Language: The natural languages (English, German etc.) accepted by the client.
Accept-Ranges: Whether the client accepts ranges of bytes from the resource i.e. a portion of the resource.
If the Web server detects that the data it wants to return is not acceptable to the client, it returns a header containing the 406 error code.
406 errors in the HTTP cycle
Any client (e.g. your Web browser) goes through the following cycle:
Obtain an IP address from the IP name of the site (the site URL without the leading 'http://'). This lookup (conversion of IP name to IP address) is provided by domain name servers (DNSs).
Open an IP socket connection to that IP address.
Write an HTTP data stream through that socket.
Receive an HTTP data stream back from the Web server in response. This data stream contains status codes whose values are determined by the HTTP protocol. Parse this data stream for status codes and other useful information.
This error occurs in the final step above when the client receives an HTTP status code that it recognizes as '406'.
Fixing 406 errors - general
This error occurs very infrequently in Web browsers, because most browsers will accept any data returned from the Web server.
If the client is not a Web browser, then anyone can only investigate the problem by looking at the Accept headers generated by the client system and the data stream returned by the Web server. If you do not have access to the source code for these systems, the only thing you can do is refer the problem to technical support people at the companies that developed the systems.

I suppose, only the web hoster can fix that ?
