Hello, im trying to make mod_deflate running on server and managing cache. So i want to ask how i can be sure this module is working? ls /usr/local/apache/modules httpd.exp libphp5.so* mod_bwlimited.so* mod_disable_suexec.so* mod_evasive20.so* mod_ruid2.so* mod_security2.so mod_suphp.so* cat /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf | grep eva LoadModule evasive20_module modules/mod_evasive20.so httpd -M | grep eva Syntax OK evasive20_module (shared) cat /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf | grep defl NOTHING httpd -M | grep defl deflate_module (static) Syntax OK httpd -v Server version: Apache/2.2.27 (Unix) Server built: Aug 1 2014 04:13:19 Cpanel::Easy::Apache v3.26.3 rev9999 php -v PHP 5.3.28 (cli) (built: Aug 1 2014 04:28:18) Copyright (c) 1997-2013 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2013 Zend Technologies with XCache v3.1.0, Copyright (c) 2005-2013, by mOo with the ionCube PHP Loader v4.6.1, Copyright (c) 2002-2014, by ionCube Ltd., and with Zend Guard Loader v3.3, Copyright (c) 1998-2010, by Zend Technologies with XCache Cacher v3.1.0, Copyright (c) 2005-2013, by mOo with Suhosin v0.9.33, Copyright (c) 2007-2012, by SektionEins GmbH curl -I -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate' http://www.mydomain.com ...

Vary: User-Agent -- so i see it appears to be enabled in apache, but i cant find it in httpd.conf, any mod deflate log or anything to veriffy it does the job? I see content is gzip encoded, but it non necesarrily mean that its done by mod_deflate? thx
Thx, it says: Gzip/Deflated enabled ? YES - The url is serving compressed content. Response header Content-Encoding: gzip So it says gzip, so not deflate Which other functions Deflate offers beside gzip?
That's it. The name of old module was gzip, the new name is deflate. If it shows that gzip is enabled then everything is fine, your deflate mod works fine. There is no other use of mod_deflate than to serve compressed (gzipped) content.
