Turning off compression - Sitefinity - Bugs & Issues

Hi,

I have a SF 5.0.2523.0 sample site. I tried turning off compression by setting the following element in web.config:

<urlCompression doDynamicCompression="false" doStaticCompression="false" dynamicCompressionBeforeCache="false" />

However I can still see in Fiddler that my output gets gzip compressed.
Is there any other switch I need to turn off?

Thanks!

Hey Martin,

Are you sure you saw it right? At the top right inspector window Fiddler will show that it's capable of serving 'gzip, deflate' but when I check the content I'm seeing the following:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Cache-Control: no-cache

Pragma: no-cache

Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

Expires: -1

Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.5

X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Cache-Control: no-cache

Pragma: no-cache

Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

Content-Encoding: gzip

Expires: -1

Vary: Accept-Encoding

Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.5

X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319

Content-Length: 3010

By just changing those 3 options in the web.config...
