Post subject: Combining a custom action handler with Deflate
Archived from groups: alt>apache>configuration (more info?)

Howdy All,
I'm using Apache 2. I'm trying to combine a custom action handler with
the built in Apache DEFLATE filter. My goal is to have all files of MIME
type text/html processed by a custom cgi program that generates an HTML
page, and then have Apache compress the resulting HTML before sending it to
the web client.
Here's what I have in mind for my .htaccess file:
Action text/html /cgi-bin/testaction/custom.cgi
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
The custom cgi program works fine. I've no trouble in calling up web
pages that get processed by my cgi program.
When used with static HTML pages that do not receive cgi processing, the
compression works just fine.
When I combine the two, as shown above in my .htaccess example, the cgi
processing happens, but the compression does not. I get correct but
uncompressed HTML. The utility program generates a correct MIME type
header.
Does anyone have any idea as to why this isn't working?
Thanks,
MK |

What if you swap the two lines?
If that gives you compressed, but unprocessed result try
AddHandler mySSI .html
Action mySSI /cgi-bin/testaction/custom.cgi
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
Good luck ... do post results eitherway.

Hello,
I've already tried both of those ideas. Neither of them change the
behavior of the system.

Last thing I can think off is setting a rewriterule -in httpd.conf- like
RewriteRule ^(/path/.*)$ /cgi-bin/testaction/custom.cgi?$1 [PT]
Awaiting next post...

Have you tried changing load order of mod_actions and mod_deflate?
Last thing I can think off is setting a rewriterule -in httpd.conf- like
RewriteRule ^(/path/.*)$ /cgi-bin/testaction/custom.cgi?$1 [PT]

I have no control over the load order of the modules. If that makes a
difference, I'll file a bug report with Apache.
I don't want to use mod_rewrite. I simply want to know how to combine a
simple Action with a built-in Apache output filter.

As in it is not your server or because all files of a folder are include in
the (alphabatical) order of its filesystem?

Why, it is rather common to have two modules one eating the others tail,
that made mod_alias and mod_rewrite a famous couple -even after being
properly ordered-  .
Another couple is mod_*_cache and mod_proxy, if you want to cache your
proxied request too you have to load mod_*_cache first. Mod_dav has to be
loaded after mod_auth* to be able to use that authentication mechanisme.
Coincidently in the given examples the alphabetic ordering happens to work
out fine...

Getting pragmatic ... well, if there is no hurry, enjoy.
Final thought, your reallife script isn't by chance 'nph-' prefixed, is it?

Hello Hans,
The cgi program does not generate nph headers.
