Hi All,

I am having the same issue as Sandeep and Murali above. I have setup http compression on my apache configuration file as outlined in this journal but this does not produce the expected output.

Any insights would be appreciated.

2nd try – the ifmodule was stripped..


      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html

@KC

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…

@KC: Probably you have not enabled the Fileinfo override for that directory in your httpd.conf. For instance:


    Override Fileinfo

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

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
