gZip compression error The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it use

I get this browser error if gzip=1

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.

with gzip=0

Page loads perfectly.

v1.5.1

I suspect your host has gzip disabled

[pixelpadre]

That would be me. What file to edit?

mod_gzip_on Yes
mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
mod_gzip_item_include file .(html?|txt|css|js|php|pl)$

I have read other posts on line from 2009. Same scenario that I have. Gzip enabled with admin off serves up pages not compressed. Turning on admin gzip gives a blank page.

I really dont want to got to every directory and edit each htaccess file to have pages compressed.

I'm thinking that this probably isn't what you need to be doing. mod_gzip hasn't been used by Apache for several years now. It has been replaced with the newer mod_deflate.

This may help (assuming you are using Centos 7)

Thanks, but that link explained how to do it in htaccess. I had that already. I want to config apache installed on centos. Not really ZC related. Im searching.

[kobra]

nobody?

This is not really a ZenCart issue but more of a server config issue
You might be better off posting on one of the sysadmin forums about this

[pixelpadre]

Maybe. But with the Dr post for the htacess entry, pages will compress. Many have had issues with the built in ZC compression. Maybe it has to be revisited to conform to new apache versions.
