Hey, i would like to turn off mod_gzip from working into one of my sites directories.
I know I can do that with .htaccess but i do not know how :(

Wherever you would want gzip to be turned off, perhaps you could try:

<IfModule mod_gzip.c>
mod_gzip_on No
</IfModule>

Let me know if this works for you

I don`t think it worked. I mean i get the same results as i previously got. :(
They should have changed.

And where exactly did U place that script for mod_gzip
Also , can I turn off zend for that directory?

I wnat to do this as I have a test installed on my server and want to get a page load test.

Both settings above force my pageload.php to load first and then execute
itself (I think). Then the reported time is a page generation time, not a page load time.

Hope you understand my issue

Whereever you would like to turn off mod_gzip.

If for the entire domain then within Virtual Host container

If for a given directory then

<Directory /path/to/disable/mod_gzip>

<IfModule mod_gzip.c>
mod_gzip_on No
</IfModule>

</Directory>

do a httpd configtest before rstarting httpd.
BTW did you rstart httpd after you made the changes? Know it is stupid to ask but still.

Zend i am not aware

Yes I did. But made some test and my problem is not form the server side but from the client side :)

You mean you are trying to see file size by right clicking on browser end?
If server is throwing right content forget the client.

I mean .. I have run some test from different locations around the globe and got different results for the script that was suppossed to change because of the mod_gzip ...

I got good results from people with good connections and bad results from people with bad internet connections . Other things also have made me know now that the problem is caused 100% from the client side.

thanks anyway for letting me know how I can turn off mod_gzip.

Happy New year to all of you !!
