Also there can be cases when the client announces gzip support, but in fact have problems when some types of responses are compressed - for example, there were problems with compressed javascripts in some browsers in the past. If you are sure that in a particular configuration all possible responses must be gzipped, "gzip_types *;" should be fine. You may want to limit it to a particular location or server though. > I’m running into a compression problem and if I set it to * > everything gzips just fine but if I list them out explicitly the > type image/jpeg is not being gzip’d via proxy request but all > others are gzip’d by proxy. Gzip_proxied is set to any. As long as Content-Type of the response is "image/jpeg", there should be not difference between "gzip_types *" and "gzip_types image/jpeg ...". If you see a difference, please provide more details - full configuration and a debug log would be ideal. -- Maxim Dounin http://mdounin.ru/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
