Comments on: Amazon S3 Delphi sample http://www.itwriting.com/blog/23-amazon-s3-delphi-sample.html Tech writing blog Sun, 12 Feb 2012 05:28:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tim http://www.itwriting.com/blog/23-amazon-s3-delphi-sample.html/comment-page-1#comment-7305 Tim Mon, 12 Mar 2007 13:34:17 +0000 http://www.itwriting.com/blog/?p=23#comment-7305 Thanks all. I've figured it out. I wrote a small script that gets recent blog posts from Wordpress in order to insert links to them on other pages. The script works OK; but I'd also configured Wordpress to do gzip compression. A characteristic of PHP gzip compression is that it must be set at the start of the script (if not done in php.ini). Since I was including the Wordpress script within other PHP pages, it was being set after some content had already been sent. Result: garbage. I didn't see it because (I presume) my proxy server disables the request for gzip compression. So in my case the compressed content was not sent. I've now disabled gzip compression in Wordpress which should fix the problem. Tim Thanks all. I’ve figured it out.

Still, I appreciate the feedback and I'll see if I can work out what's happening.

Attempting to access these pages from any user agent that allows retrieving compressed content (which is just about all of them, including Internet Explorer) will fail with a bad decompression code. Access WITHOUT decompression is fine (testing through Synapse component)... Hope this helps...
