Description
Using the following directives in the http section of the conf file:
gzip_disable msie6;
gzip_vary on;
gzip_http_version 1.1;
gzip_static on;
gunzip on;
With a gzip file "index.html.gz" and no ordinary file "index.html" in the root directory
curl http://192.168.1.10:8111/index.html -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate' - Works
curl http://192.168.1.10:8111/index.html - returns 404 File Not Found
Through a hack I can get it to return an uncompressed (using gunzip module) version if I comment out the second condition check from ngx_http_gzip_static_module.c:ngx_http_gzip_static_handler L112:
if (gzcf->enable == NGX_HTTP_GZIP_STATIC_OFF) {
return NGX_DECLINED;
/*}
if (gzcf->enable == NGX_HTTP_GZIP_STATIC_ON) {
rc = ngx_http_gzip_ok(r);
*/
} else {
/* always */
rc = NGX_OK;
}
I'm not familiar with the nginx code base so this may not be the most appropriate place. It seems the function ngx_http_gzip_ok checks whether the client can accept gzip encoding. Perhaps this function should take into consideration whether the gunzip module is activated.
There is gzip_static always to do what you want.
