another suggestion, use the below deflate.conf instead, because compressing these other types of files will be pointless and wasteful, as well as cause issues…

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:exe|t?gz|zip|bz2|sit|rar)$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.pdf$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.avi$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.mov$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.mp3$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.mp4$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.rm$ no-gzip dont-vary

Hello,

To enable the mod_file_cache, you need to edit the Apache Configuration file at /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and look for the following

#IfModule mod_disk_cache.c>
# CacheEnable disk /
# CacheRoot “/var/cache/mod_proxy”
#/IfModule>

Remove the comments (i.e. #) from the start of every line, save the file and restart the httpd service. That will enable the cache. For more details, refer:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_cache.html

Hi!

I have just ordered a Plesk Server (I have never worked with Plesk before). How can I install/load mod_file_cache apache module in Plesk 10?

Thank You.

You wouldn’t believe the convoluted answers to this question that are floating around the ‘net.

Thanks for this easy and great solution!
