Description Tomasz Sterna 2003-03-29 15:40:27 UTC

Apache 2 now correctly handles If-Modified-Since browser header.
PHP still lacks API support for it and it creates a lot of problems with
browsers using the If-Modified-Since header requests.
The correct fix (patch) and a temporary fix (.conf hack) is available here:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=17098
May I suggest including the patch, or modifying the
/etc/apache2/conf/modules.d/70_mod_php.conf to:
<IfDefine PHP4>
  <IfModule !mod_php4.c>
    LoadModule php4_module    extramodules/libphp4.so
  </IfModule>
  <Files *.php>
    SetOutputFilter PHP
    SetInputFilter PHP
    LimitRequestBody 524288
    RequestHeader unset If-Modified-Since
  </Files>
</IfDefine>
[...]
