Bug Type: Zlib Related
Operating System: RedHat Enterprise Linux 3
PHP Version: 5.0.2
New Comment:
I can confirm this bug.
PHP 4.3.6
Zlib support as loadable module linked to library version 1.1.4
zlib.output_compression = On
causes scrambled output likely to be the gzip compressed version of the
information for the browser but the browser doesn't know it is
compressed. Content-Encoding header is set as Chunked instead of gzip.

Description:
------------
I enabled automatic gzip compression with the following
line in php.ini:
zlib.output_compression = on
The problem is that the Content-Encoding header does not
get set at all in the response. Therefore, a browser
that advertises itself as supporting gzip compression
(Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate) receives compressed
content but does not know it is compressed.
If I manually add the following to my script:
header("Content-Encoding: gzip");
... it then works.
This was tried in the Safari and Firefox clients on Mac
OS X. Server is RedHat Enterprise Linux 3 running kernel
2.4.21-20. PHP 5.0.2 running as a module of
Apache2 2.0.46.
If you need other details do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you.
P.S. Even though I compiled PHP with:
./configure --with-apxs2 --with-mysql --with-zlib
if I call phpinfo, here what it shows:
./configure --with-apxs2 --with-mysql
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
print 'Here is some output !!!';
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Here is some output !!!
Actual result:
--------------
