That rules out some things and gives me a place to start.

Thanks!

This error code is never issued by the PmWiki core, so I suspect a 
server (mis-)configuration. This request is blocked, never reaching 
PmWiki.


The first thing I'd check is that the server accepts pathname 
information, like you use pmwiki.php/Main/HomePage instead of 
pmwiki.php?n=Main.HomePage. If it is disabled, on the Apache server it 
can be enabled with this line in .htaccess:


  AcceptPathInfo On

However, since you say it only happens when you post an edit form, and 
only on some pages, it may be a web application firewall (WAF) doing 
this. Many hosting providers use the "mod_security" WAF, and you need to 
review the documentation of your hosting provider about what can be 
configured and how.

error 406. Please contact the site administrator.

It happens when I Save a page, or even when I Cancel a save, but only
happens for some pages.

Fingers crossed it's easy to fix if I look in the right place. I 
haven't
used PmWiki for anything but updating content and software for this 
site

for almost 10 years. (I miss it!)

Thanks in advance,
