PHP extensions that minify uses to gzip the content

[Owdy]

It's possible you don't have the PHP extensions that minify uses to gzip the content installed.

I have own dedicated server. Just tel me what i need? :D

You could always look in the files you have to see which extensions it uses ;)

Little of topic: How can you verify that your board is using gzip after you enable it from ACP? I am in the same boat as OP.

Minify uses inbuilt PHP GZ functions, not mod_gzip, if you had both enabled it would cause a problem.

Aah, ok!

Aah, ok!

By the way, forgot to post this in the last post, it's Zlib you need to be able to use Gzip. http://uk.php.net/manual/en/book.zlib.php

I need zlip to use gzip? Im confused. So i enable this?

; Transparent output compression using the zlib library

; Valid values for this option are 'off', 'on', or a specific buffer size

; to be used for compression (default is 4KB)

; Note: Resulting chunk size may vary due to nature of compression. PHP

;       outputs chunks that are few hundreds bytes each as a result of

;       compression. If you prefer a larger chunk size for better

;       performance, enable output_buffering in addition.

; Note: You need to use zlib.output_handler instead of the standard

;       output_handler, or otherwise the output will be corrupted.

zlib.output_compression = Off

;zlib.output_compression_level = -1

No, you just need to make sure the zlib extension is loaded, it should tell you in phpinfo(); I believe you also need to be able to use http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.set-include-path.php

You don't need to enable output_compression, it would interfere with minify if you did.

You should check in phpinfo too for any disabled functions
