[Solved] Wordpress & Litespeed Download.gz Error

[ComputerChris]

I'm having a few issues with Litespeed. I have a Wordpress blog and every time I click on a post, it begins to download a "download.gz" file. I don't have any cache plugins installed and I'm not sure what could be the issue.

These are the only warnings I have from the server log...

[] can't set 'Forced Type', undefined MIME Type handler/perl-script
[] can't set 'Forced Type', undefined MIME Type handler/default-handler

I also wanted to install a php accelerator and my host had installed eAccelerator and APC for me. Both were installed successfully, however they say that the integration part is not working. Is there suppose to be some special integration/configuration within Litespeed admin panel? I tried looking through the Wiki for the tutorial but the link is dead...

What is your server environment?

For opcode cache like APC, use following as reference
http://www.litespeedtech.com/support/wiki/doku.php?id=litespeed_wiki:php:opcode_cache

You also need to disable PHP suEXEC (LSWS Admin Console -> Configuration -> Server -> General -> Using Apache Configuration File -> PHP suEXEC) for APC to work properly.

What do you mean by server environment? I know that I'm running CentOs..

Thanks for the link

server environment means OS (CentOS), 32bit or 64bit system, control panel if any, LSWS version, etc.

Regarding download.gz issue, does any post or certain one trigger download.gz file?

 

[ComputerChris]

CentOs 32bit
Litespeed Web Server Enterprise v4.0.20 w/ Php 5.3.5, Suhosin , PHP Mail Header Patch
Plesk 10.2.0

The .gz issue happens to all posts and pages. Except the homepage..But all the images load fine.

 

[webizen]

create a simple php test page like the following and see if it causes download.

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

 

[ComputerChris]

The php test page displays fine.

 

[webizen]

provide a sample URL in question here or in pm

 

[ComputerChris]

It works now

Thanks webizen!

for everyone else:

the issue is due to WP W3 Total Cache plugin with compression turned on. response header from FF is shown as follows. iow, W3 cache plugin was _not_ disabled.

the issue went away once cache plugin disabled. the server response header in FF is as follows:
