> many many thanks for your kind attention and solution. It helped me. > Is there any way to check the deflate is operational ? Also trying reading the mod_deflate documentation:- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_deflate.html There you will see examples of how to configure a mod_deflate log file which is useful is you want to see what mod_deflate is doing. A couple of things that tripped me up whilst configuring this recently:- 1. mod_deflate doesn't seem to play nicely with IE6. Google 'mod_deflate IE6' to see what I mean. We ended up disabling it for IE6. 2. If you configure mod_deflate logging in the main host, but you've enabled virtual hosting, your log file will be created but it will be empty. You need to configure the log file inside your Virtual Host block instead.
