Re: , FastCGI disables Apache2's mod_deflate (Andrej van der Zee)

Hi Andrej,

We recently had the same problem. The reason for this id not that it  
is disabled, but that there is a bug in mod_fastcgi, that prevents  
mod_deflate (or any other filter) from handling mod_fastcgi output  
correctly.

I have gone into the code of mod_fastcgi and created a patch.  
Supposedly it is going into the net maintainance release. I have  
attache the patch again for you. You need to patch mod_fastcgi and  
then recompile and install it.

Regards,ΦΔ

Technical Info: mod_fastcgi never sends a bucket with the EOS flag  
down the Apache bucket brigade. Therefore any filter after mod_fastcgi  
will never know that the content has ended. This is not a problem if  
there are no filters, because if there is only a handle all processing  
has ended when it returns. But when there are filters involved they  
get invoked every time there is data passed down the bucket brigade,  
and Apache never really knows when to stop.
