Documentation for Crowd 1.4. Documentation for other versions of Crowd is available too.

By default, Crowd compresses the output from the security server, using the Gzip compression format, before sending the data to the client over the network. Compression of server output is optional. You can turn it on or off via the Crowd Administration Console.

Here are some reasons why you may want to turn compression off:

  • It may be easier to debug problems using uncompressed data.
  • Some agents, such as older versions of Internet Explorer, have problems with the Gzip format.

To enable/disable compression of server output,

  1. Log in to the Crowd Administration Console.
  2. Click the 'Administration' tab in the top navigation bar.
  3. The 'General Options' screen will appear. Set the 'Gzip Compression' option as follows:
    • Put a tick in the checkbox to instruct the Crowd Security Server to use Gzip compression when sending responses.
    • Leave the checkbox empty to instruct Crowd to send uncompressed data.
