I'm not seeing that problem on my system, but I'm running newer versions (httpd 2.2.9 and Tomcat 6.0.18). I do recall seeing some strange 304 responses with 2.0 & 5.5, but it was a while ago and I don't remember if the problem was extra bytes in the response.
What version of mod_jk are you using? I'm using 1.2.26. If mod_jk is old you could try updating it. (I know it's a pain to update the whole web server just to test, but upgrading just mod_jk is easier.) What are the extra 20 bytes? Are they an actual message body or garbage? -- Len On Fri, Mar 6, 2009 at 21:08, Eqbal <eqb...@yahoo.com> wrote: > > Some additional info I found on this: > It seems that combination of mod_deflate and mod_jk is causing the issue.
