The deflate filter seems to break Apache's handling of the 304 Not Modified status. Apache package: apache2-mpm-prefork 2.2.8-1ubuntu0 In the Apache config, if I load mod_deflate and include: AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain Request /test.txt so the browser caches it, then request it again: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GET /test.txt HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.4; en-GB; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061004 Firefox/3.0 Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 Accept-Language: en-AU,en-GB;q=0.7,en;q=0.3 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive If-Modified-Since: Fri, 20 Jun 2008 12:36:57 GMT If-None-Match: "21adc6-e-4501859732c40"-gzip Cache-Control: max-age=0 HTTP/1.x 200 OK Date: Sat, 21 Jun 2008 09:01:39 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) DAV/2 PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5 with Suhosin-Patch mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.8g Last-Modified: Fri, 20 Jun 2008 12:36:57 GMT Etag: "21adc6-e-4501859732c40"-gzip Accept-Ranges: bytes Vary: Accept-Encoding Content-Encoding: gzip Content-Length: 34 Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100 Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Type: text/plain [gzipped content] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FWICS the response could 304 on the basis of either the Etag or Last-Modified. If I rename test.txt to some mime type that doesn't have an associated outputfilter, the response 304s as expected. Is this a bug? How do I make httpd return a 304 status in this situation, while still gzipping content where applicable? -- Dean --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
