Hope I've got this in the right forum, if not please feel free to move the thread. I am working on a new CentoOS 6.3 installation for web hosting and trying to get gzip compression working through mod_deflate. I have mod_deflate.so loading as a modules directive in my httpd.conf and there are no errors on restart that indicate an issue in the Apache logs, yet when I try to use engage the functionality I am unable to get anything to compress (tested with several of the gzip test sites on the web).

I've also tried httpd –M, yet I believe this only shows compiled-in modules, regardless this does not show mod_deflate.

Any help with this issue is greatly apprecited!

Thanks,

Keith

Do you have the directive:

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

?

More details at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_deflate.html

Never mind, I figured it out, my WAF was stripping our the compression capabilities. Thanks for the response though.
