[Mediawiki-l] disable Output compression

[Alexandre van de sande]

I did that and they've replied that I should disable Output 
compression. That should be done during installation or can it be done 
hand-editing the php files on the site?

Thanks
Alexandre (I searched about this on the web before posting, are the 
list archives googable?)

Sys Administrator:
"We think that the source of the problem is in the line \"• Have zlib 
support; enabling output compression.\", because we have an 
incompatibility between mod_ssl and some compression libraries wich 
ones send to browser wrong http headers, so you should try to install 
mediawiki without output compressing."
