Yes, Andre.MOD_DEFLATE setting as done in my httpd.conf as follows - perfectly does - one part of work - which is - Compression - for all Pages. <Location /> SetOutputFilter DEFLATE SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \ \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png|tar)$ no-gzip dont-vary </Location> And also it does set "Content-Encoding=gzip" (Which I can see using "Fiddler" tool) - 90% of the time. But for 10% of my pages - the Compression happens, but Content-Encoding="" is set. I can check this using Fiddler again. I will tend to think that it is an Apache issue. Because, my application is not aware that - Apache compression has been enabled. And if Apache is indeed compressing a page, now whose responsibility it becomes - to set the Content-Encoding=gzip??? Apache is not behaving as expected. So, IE7 explorer cannot recognize this as a compressed page and fails. I am happy to send you and Nick the entire httpd.conf file - if attachments are allowed in this forum.
Ok, taking all that you write above at face value,is there /something/ (URL, size, type, whatever) that distinguishes the 10% of pages that result in a 'Content-encoding: "" ' header, from the others ?
Also, can you give us a short explanation of how these pages are being generated ? I mean what is the application that generates them, where does it live, how does Apache get that content, etc..
And does that application /ever/ by itself generate compressed content ?Can you give us an example of the response headers in both cases (copy and paste from Fiddler) ?
I'm just plucking at straws here, trying to figure out the reason for the 10%..
