nginx wordpress js with gzip?

[hcjsy]

If you add it directly in server { }

/home/<USER>/conf/web/nginx.conf like so:

Code: Select all

server {

listen      blah;
server_name blah;
root        /home/blah/web/blah/public_html

gzip on;
gzip_disable "msie6";

gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_min_length 1100;
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types text/js text/javascript application/javascript application/x-javascript;
}

Does that work!?

no didnt work either, and made sure I restarted the nginx service.

[SS88]

nginx: [warn] duplicate extension "js", content type: "application/x-javascript", previous content type: "application/javascript" in /etc/nginx/mime.types:9
nginx: [warn] duplicate extension "js", content type: "application/x-javascript", previous content type: "application/javascript" in /etc/nginx/mime.types:9

mime.types should be added like so (example only):

Code: Select all

    image/jpeg                            jpeg jpg;
    application/javascript text/javascript application/x-javascript                js;
    application/atom+xml                  atom;
    application/rss+xml                   rss;

What is your OS? Windows?

have adjusted the mime.types so that duplicate message is gone, and added the

Code: Select all

gzip_http_version   1.0;

the server is ubuntu 14

[SS88]

Code: Select all

Not sending the header. I don't think I can help any further!

[hcjsy]

What do you mean by not sending the header?

I ran the command here and :

Code: Select all

I tried again on a different server:

Code: Select all

[root@atl ~]# curl -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip" -I http://wordpress.highlands.ac.uk/wp-includes/js/wp-embed.min.js
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

and with --compressed

Code: Select all

strange, I just edited the config changed gzip to off, ran the curl on my machine again and came back as expected

Code: Select all

curl -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip" -I http://wordpress.highlands.ac.uk/wp-includes/js/wp-embed.min.js
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx

Accept-Ranges: bytes

changed it back to on, and as expected at the bottom when running the command again:

Code: Select all

Content-Encoding: gzip

[SS88]

When I view it with Google Chrome css and js files are not sending the header either.

I managed to resolve this. It was to do with the firewall (tmg 2010) not passing on from the client to the webserver that the client is gzip ready.
