How to disable mod_deflate in apache2?

How can I disable mod_deflate in Apache2

• For files in a specific directory

OR

• For all files that have extension of,开发者_StackOverflow社区 for example .py?

You could set the environment variable no-gzip for that directory/type of file:

# for URL paths that begin with "/foo/bar/"
SetEnvIf Request_URI ^/foo/bar/ no-gzip=1

# for files that end with ".py"
<FilesMatch \.py$>
    SetEnv no-gzip 1
</FilesMatch>

Disable Compression: To disable compression in Apache, typically you just need to disable the module mod_deflate...

Debian/Ubuntu:

$ sudo a2dismod deflate
Module deflate disabled.
Run '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart' to activate new configuration!

$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Don't know if this is a general solution, but it worked for me at least, to turn of mod_deflate for .py-files within a .htaccess file in a certain folder:

SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI "\.py$" no-gzip dont-vary
