Hi. The default config file for mod_gzip, /etc/apache/conf/addon- modules/mod_gzip.conf, isn't setup to allow support for the "mod_gzip_command_version" command. As of the latest version, in order to support this command you have to specifically bind it inside the config file. Something like: mod_gzip_command_version mod_gzip_show_version In the Changelog (URL attached) they say they changed to this for security reasons. I assume that is to keep every random passerby to see what mod_gzip version you are using. Perhaps comment out the line with a little note to users, saying if they wish to enable this function, to uncomment the line. The command is a HTML based information screen. You access it via http://www.yoursitehere.com/mod_gzip_show_version (if you used the example I gave). The "mod_gzip_show_version" can be changed to anything you wish. Anyway, it is strictly a convenience issue. I'm not sure if it is something you'd want to add. I just thought it would save the time of new users having to try to figure out why the FAQ on the mod_gzip website is incorrect. (Only in this Changelog is this new change documented.) -PJ http://www.elitegamer.com
I forgot to add this in my initial bug report. The default config is also missing the following line: mod_gzip_min_http 1001 That tells mod_gzip to NOT use compression on browsers which do not identify themselves as at least HTTP/1.1. It would probably be a good idea to include that just to maintain compatibility with browsers from the Jurassic era. =) -PJ http://www.EliteGamer.com
