[SOLVED] Problem with Quickupdate v4.5 Content Encoding Error

[andrian]

I have found this problem after installing latest Quickupdate

Content Encoding Error

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.

Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

I have no idea what has caused this problem. Any suggestion will be much appreciated. Thank you

I just noticed an error message I recorded with Httpfox

Result: error
Type: NS_ERROR_DODUMENT_NOT_CACHED
Url: www.xxx.com/adminxxx/quickupdate/index.php

Hi andrian,

This might be caused by the server configuration you may have.

Please send us your website details (access), server configuration (PHP version) and the browsers you used for accessing QuickUpdate to our support email so we can check and fix the issues you are having.

Best regards.

Marking as SOLVED because the lack of reply -> assuming the problem was either temporary or solved independent of any bug in the module.

For everyone experiencing the same issue

If you have access to your php.ini you need to change

Code:

zlib.output_compression = Off

to

Code:

zlib.output_compression = Off

Hi,

You do not actually need access to your php.ini file or modify it for that matter, just add the following line at the beginning of the "/modules/quickupdate/quickupdatebase.php" file:

Code:

@ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 0);

This solution should work for most cases if no specific restrictions are set on the server.

Marking as solved.

Best regards.
