meaningA Transfer-Encoding: chunked was detectet, but in the configuration mod_gzip has not been allowed to remove this encoding (i. e. collect all chunks and join them to one packet, whose content would then be compressable). The directive mod_gzip_dechunk Yes would have allowed mod_gzip to compress this request.
