squid 2.7 cannot handle HTTP/1.1 which is needed for, among other

to get it working with squid 2.7.

i know squid 3.1 has made great improvements on HTTP/1.1 support, but as
i dont use it, i cannot guarantee you what's working and what's not.

check squid 3.1 changelogs looking for HTTP/1.1 related things. Also i'd
suggest you to search this mailing list archives, as HTTP/1.1 support on
squid was vastly discused here by other users.


FWIW:

squid-2.7 and 3.1 have equal levels of support for the various encodings. Both doing de-coding chunks as required. Neither do any changes for the deflate/gzip/compress/sdch coding types.

Both have roughly equal handling of coded variants. 3.1.10 and later have better ETag comparisons.

Hello everyone,

I have a small problem with squid (Squid 2.7.STABLE9).

I'm trying to optimize our IIS6 web portal. I activated HTTP compression
both for static and dynamic content, and this works OK when the
browser asks
for content directly to the IIS server ...

BUT, when the browser asks for content thru Squid.
Content is effectively served by IIS but as the Content-Encoding
header is missing, so nor IE or FireFox can handle it !


karj, are you saying that IIS is not adding any header? there is nothing Squid can do about that. Absence of a header indicates there is no coding used on that object.

Or are you saying that Squid removes the header without decoding?
