IIS 7 - FastCGI Module

Re: IIS7 PHP FastCGI and gzip compression

The first one indicates that the request had no Accept-Encoding header and the second one indicates that the request came via a forward proxy (had a via header) - you should be able to verify that is the case by looking at the content of the GENERAL_REQUEST_HEADERS event earlier in the trace log - for the second one, you can change the behavior by setting noCompressionForProxies to false in the httpCompression section (%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd set config -section:system.webServer/httpCompression -noCompressionForProxies:false)

I've run multiple tests with different settings with the following reason phrases for the DYNAMIC_COMPRESSION_NOT_SUCCESS event:

Reason 1
Reason NO_ACCEPT_ENCODING

Reason 4
Reason NO_COMPRESSION_PROXY

static compression will not work since it is not a static resource, but dynamic compression should work - can you collect a failed request trace log of a request with dynamic compression not working and provide the reason phrase in the DYNAMIC_COMPRESSION_NOT_SUCCESS event.

IIS7 PHP FastCGI and gzip compression

For some reason, I can't seem to get gzip compression (static or dynamic) to work with PHP and FastCGI running under IIS7 (Windows Server 2008).

I know the gzip works because I've tested it with an ASP.NET application.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?
