Enabling gzip compression in apache2 web server

  • 772

I am trying to enable the zgip compression in apache2 web server, a quick googling helped me to fetch some instructions and I got to know that I need to edit httpd.conf which is inside /etc/apache2/ but my ubuntu 10.04 server doesnt have any content inside httpd.conf file and I also had a look into apache.conf file but could not find "LoadModule deflate_module modules/mod_deflate.so"

So where can I find this lines so that I can edit it.

apache-2.2 web-server gzip

    On the Debian based distros, you can enable it by executing:

    $ sudo a2enmod deflate

    The configuration is located at /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/deflate.conf.
