You need to enable mod_deflate first.

a2enmod deflate

Also recommend you check if its loaded by using the ifmodule command eg:

.htaccess

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html

That way, if its missing, it won’t break anything…

What's going wrong here? I am using Apache 2.0.40 I added the following to my .htaccess:

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html

But it just produced internal server errors. What’s going wrong here? I am using Apache 2.0.40

Your settings worked perfectly for me, thank you. I would add the following: AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-httpd-php AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-httpd-fastphp AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-httpd-eruby AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE image/svg+xml And cut out the time-consuming logging: DeflateFilterNote LogFormat Perfect! Your settings worked perfectly for me, thank you.

I would add the following:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-httpd-php
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-httpd-fastphp
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-httpd-eruby
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE image/svg+xml

And cut out the time-consuming logging:
DeflateFilterNote
LogFormat
