I ensure that mod_deflate is now enable in my suse 11.0 server /etc/sysconfig/apache2 --------------------------------- [.....] LoadModule deflate_module /usr/lib64/apache2-prefork/mod_deflate.so [......] I have placed the following in httpd.conf [.......] <IfModule mod_deflate.c> AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml </IfModule> [.......] and restarted apache. No error or complaining. But I have not found any difference in access.log to see the presence of deflate. I admit I have not change the LogFormat as awstats is running here and the LogFormat is modified to support awstats. vhost logging is separated by vlogger here. So I can see one of two options 1. mod_deflate is running but can't see here in log 2. mod_deflate is not running at all. How can I go further to check it ? thanks -- জয়দীপ বক্সী --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
