Not sure if this goes under feature requests, bug reports, or just user help, so here goes...

I've noticed that the included config for cherrypy does not enable the (http) server to serve compressed pages dependant on client Accept-Encoding headers (eg: gzip).

So I enabled it. And it broke

No idea whether I enabled it properly or not, but what I did was add "'gzip_filter.on': True," to the default_global = { } section in ./cherrypy/config.py and restart sab.

The server started up, and when I brought up the queue page, the response headers DID include the "Content-Encoding: gzip" and "Vary: Accept-Encoding" headers to indicate a compressed page, however the entire content of the response itself became: (But it WAS compressed!)

Which seems to indicate that sab can't cope with serving compressed pages? Or did I need to enable something else?
Has anyone even tried to do this before?

Hope someone can help ... thanks!

Edit: Er, duh, I'm using sab 0.4.6 (final) and Firefox 3.0.4+Opera 9.5 browsers...

We're working on integrating CherryPy-3, which should make this work.
So we won't put much effort in CherryPy-2 issues.

K, no worries.

That sounds like a major-ish change though? Cherrypy 3 targeting 0.5.x or so?
I've noticed the -cp3 branch in svn, so I might have a go at that one/keep an eye on it/see if it even works

Cheers.
