Nginx + Ubuntu 9.10, gzip not functioning
- by Matt
Hey there,
So I installed and configured Nginx 0.7.62 on a new Slicehost Ubuntu 9.10 slice.
All seems to work fine with the server, except that gzip isn't working for one reason or another. I made sure that it's setting were correct in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:
user www-data;
worker_processes 3;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
# multi_accept on;
}
http {
include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
keepalive_timeout 2;
tcp_nodelay on;
gzip on;
gzip_comp_level 2;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/x-javascript;
gzip_disable "MSIE [1-6]\.";
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}
This normally wouldn't be a big deal, but gzip support could save considerable bandwidth for my site. Does anyone have any ideas of what to check, or has anyone else run into this problem?
