GZIP Compression - Server Side configuration

[Romain Larvet]

Hello,

 

I would like to add gzip compression to my axis2 services on server-side and
can't find how to do this. Can someone help?

 

Here is what I tried:

1)      Service code : I added the following code to my service in the
generated skeleton:

      MessageContext messageContext =
MessageContext.getCurrentMessageContext();

      messageContext.setProperty(HTTPConstants.MC_GZIP_RESPONSE,
Boolean.TRUE);

messageContext.setProperty(HTTPConstants.MC_ACCEPT_GZIP, Boolean.TRUE);

 

2)      Tomcat config : I also tried to modify the server.xml file as
follows:

    <Connector

           port="8080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"

           maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="2" maxSpareThreads="75"

           enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" 

           acceptCount="100" connectionTimeout="20000" 

           disableUploadTimeout="true"

           compression="on" compressionMinSize="1" 

           noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla, traviata" 

           compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml"

           />

 

Even with this config, when I monitor requests and responses with Eclipse
TCP/IP Monitor I see no compression in the message content, and I don't see
the header Content-Encoding : gzip 

 

Can you tell me if I forgot something?

 

Thanks in advance for your help,
