Hi Colm,
In the apache httpd.conf make sure you load the gzip_module after the CF one.
# Example:
# LoadModule foo_module libexec/mod_foo.so
LoadModule coldfusion_module libexec/mod_coldfusion.so
LoadModule gzip_module libexec/mod_gzip.so
The use ifmodule for the mod_gzip settings:
<IfModule mod_gzip.c>
mod_gzip_on yes
mod_gzip_dechunk yes
mod_gzip_min_http 1001
mod_gzip_temp_dir /tmp/gzip
mod_gzip_handle_methods GET POST
mod_gzip_minimum_file_size 4500
mod_gzip_can_negotiate Yes
mod_gzip_update_static No
mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/
mod_gzip_item_exclude file \.jpg$
mod_gzip_item_exclude file \.gif$
mod_gzip_item_include file \.htm$
mod_gzip_item_include mime text/html*
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/plain$
mod_gzip_item_include file \.html$
mod_gzip_item_include handler type-coldfusion
mod_gzip_item_include file \.cfm$
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^httpd/unix-directory$
mod_gzip_keep_workfiles No
</IfModule>
The above will use mod_gzip on anything but image files.
Then you can also add the following 2 lines to the LogFormat directive to see your
compression ratios in access_log.
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b mod_gzip: %{mod_gzip_compression_ratio}npct."
common_with_mod_gzip_info1
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b mod_gzip: %{mod_gzip_result}n
In:%{mod_gzip_input_size}n
Out:%{mod_gzip_output_size}n:%{mod_gzip_compression_ratio}npct."
common_with_mod_gzip_info2
We have had no problems with form post/gets/uploads using CF5 and mod_gzip.
