Comment 1 for bug 329053

I've observed this same problem. There's discussion on the forums about it, and a suggestion that it's related to an old bug being re-introduced. See here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1067968

My computer:
2.6.24-23-generic x86_64 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 8.04.2

Version of PHP installed:
php5-common (5.2.4-2ubuntu5.5)
php5-cli (5.2.4-2ubuntu5.5)
libapache2-mod-php5 (5.2.4-2ubuntu5.5)
php-pear (5.2.4-2ubuntu5.5)

Version of mythweb installed:
mythweb (0.21.0+fixes16)

I've tried enabling and disabling output_compression and output_handler options in my php.ini file to no avail. The relevant configuration in my php.ini is:

output_buffering = Off
;output_handler =
zlib.output_compression = Off
;zlib.output_compression_level = -1
;zlib.output_handler =
implicit_flush = Off

Relevant config for mythweb in the apache config (default from installation except for additional memory limit):

php_value safe_mode 0
php_value memory_limit 64M
php_value register_globals 0
php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0
php_value file_uploads 0
php_value allow_url_fopen On
php_value zlib.output_handler Off
php_value output_handler NULL
php_flag output_handler "NULL"

have fun()
