 I originally introduced these modules to this list in an earlier post titled
 Report on mod_accel and mod_deflate in which I promoted these modules as
 an excellent tool for creating a front-end accelerator to mod_perl web
 applications. It included brief documentation for installing and configuring
 the modules--previously there had only been Russian documentation.
 
 There's been no other location for English language discussion of these
 modules. So the discussion has ended up here. I take full responsibility for
 any OT pollution as a result. ;-)
 
 Given that these modules are new, don't have an active discussion home in
 English yet, and are very relevent to mod_perl programmers, I'd like to see
 discussion remain here, or at least have Igor post the occassional update on
 new releases etc.

As to mod_deflate I think mod_perl list is not right place to discuss it.
But mod_accel discussion is more relevent to this list as well as
lingerd, mod_proxy, Squid and other reverse proxing or accelerating
technology.

 If that bothers anyone then I'm happy to set up a mailing list elsewhere, of
 course.

I think it would be nice.

As with any discussion that tend to recurr (what Doug used to call 'a 
broken record'), it's better to sum up things, adds them to 'some' guide 
and then make long threads short, by sending what seems to be hated by 
everyone: 'read the guide' + direct URL if not too lazy.

So if you want to send me some short instructions which can be plugged 
here: http://perl.apache.org/guide/scenario.html, please do that. But 
first run the submitted doc through the list, for polishing. Once it's 
done I'll add them to the mod_perl guide.

Does the senario doc (below) apply to Apache V 1, V2 or both?

only v1 at this point.


here: http://perl.apache.org/guide/scenario.html, please do that. But 

there is a whole new tree of docs for apache/2.0 modperl/2.0 docs in 
works. Stay tuned.

mod_deflate problem with chunked encoding

2002-01-17 Thread Philip Mak

The following webpage on a mod_deflate enabled server is not working
correctly in some browsers:

http://www.aaanime.net/pmak/sylphiel/

If I telnet www.aaanime.net 80 and send the following commands:

GET /pmak/sylphiel/ HTTP/1.1
Host: www.aaanime.net
Accept-Encoding: gzip

then the data it sends back is partially gzip, and partially plain
text! It is sent with Transfer-Encoding: chunked and the first 1 or
2 chunks are gzipped, but the rest are not.

The source code for the page is an .shtml file. Inside that .shtml
file, I have the directive !--#exec cgi=navbar.cgi--. Everything
until after that directive is gzipped, then the rest of it is not.

navbar.cgi is a simple perl script that does:
print Content-type: text/html\n\n;

followed by a few more print statements.

Any idea how to fix this problem? Do I need to provide any additional
information in particular? Thanks.

did you email the right list?

I'm not sure why mod_deflate and mod_accel problems keep popping up here 
of late, but maybe there's some mis-information floating around 
somewhere in the docs on these two modules?

not that this list is opposed to OT but interesting discussion from time 
to time :)

 I figured that the mod_perl mailing list was the best place to post
 about these problems, since mod_deflate/mod_accel doesn't have its own
 mailing list and there's a lot of people on this list who use it...


that's fine - you don't have to justify the post to me :)

The problem really exists. I suspect '!--#exec' although '!--#include'
works fine on our several sites. I'll try to repeat it in my local
enviroment.
