Breaking: #93182 - Changed file extension for gzip compressed files
See forge#93182
Description
When using file compression for resources such as JavaScript or
StyleSheets via $GLOBALS
or
$GLOBALS
the generated files are
now written via the file extension ".gz" instead of ".gzip" in previous versions.
TYPO3 follows the de-facto standard for compressed assets, as ".gz" is much more widespread than ".gzip" file extensions (see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types/Common_types).
Impact
Compressed resources are now generated and served via ".gz".
Affected installations
TYPO3 installations setting the global configuration option.
Migration
Adapt possible .htaccess
or other webserver configuration files
by replacing ".gzip" with ".gz" if this feature is activated.
