[Resolved] LSWS 5.0 with cPanel/whm : no more GZIP/DEFLATE

[webmastergreg]

Hi,
just installed LS 5.0 (whm/cPanel | CENTOS 6.6 x86_64), but now, no more gzip/deflate compression on output.
When i switch back to 4.2.23 all is ok.
Does someone experience this issue ?

thanks

Please create a ticket with us, we need to do more investigation on this.
Does it happen for regular HTTP connections? or HTTP/2 ?

 

[webmastergreg]

Hi ok I'll create it asap
For your question: This is the same issue for both

 

[mistwang]

5.0 build 8 is available, please upgrade with lsup.sh, let us know if still have problem.

 

[mistwang]

Please try 5.0 build 10.
/usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/lsup.sh -f -v 5.0

Hi, sorry for late reply

ok now it seems to be the build 11

build 11 tested but still the same.

For example here what's a response header with the build 11 for a text/html content:

Accept-Ranges bytes
Connection close
Content-Encoding gzip
Content-Type text/html; charset=utf-8
Date Mon, 18 May 2015 08:00:53 GMT
Expires Mon, 18 May 2015 10:00:53 GMT, Mon, 1 Jan 2001 00:00:00 GMT
Last-Modified Mon, 18 May 2015 08:00:53 GMT
P3P CP="NOI ADM DEV PSAi COM NAV OUR OTRo STP IND DEM"
Pragma no-cache
Server LiteSpeed
Vary Accept-Encoding,User-Agent,User-Agent
X-Content-Encoded-By PHP

As you can see there's the "Content-Encoding gzip"

But now for all the others (css / js etc):

Accept-Ranges bytes
Cache-Control public, max-age=259200
Date Mon, 18 May 2015 08:10:34 GMT
Expires Thu, 21 May 2015 08:10:34 GMT
Server LiteSpeed
Vary User-Agent,User-Agent

No gzip at all in the response header and when I test the site under pagespeed insight or from a gzip test tool the answer is always that the contents are not compressed.


With v 4.2.23 all is ok

Please contact bug@litespeed ... or create a ticket, we need to check your server configuration to find out what causing it.

Hi, just wondering if you resolved this? i am having the same issue (installed directly on my vps)

 

[mistwang]

Please contact bug@litespeed or submit a ticket with details on how to reproduce this problem.
May need temp root access to investigate this issue.

 

[Rudi]

Thanks, have submitted a ticket

 

[mistwang]

It is indeed a bug in 5.0, have it fixed in 5.0 build 13 after checking Rudi's server.

/usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/lsup.sh -f -v 5.0

 

[Rudi]

thanks mistwang, will test and report back if there any issues

 

[webmastergreg]

Hello all

sorry but since my last reply I fell very sick (hospital) anyway it's ok now, so I must reply that yes it's ok for me too with the 14build also.
Thanks for the team and thanks so much to Rudi too

Best regards
