Apache config settings

[manoaman]

Hi,

I am trying to set up Apache (Apache/2.4.37 centos) for file serving but somehow I cannot get to work the .gz rewriting for the precomputed dataset. Chrome Dev Tool is showing 404 without .gz extensions. Could I be missing something here? I am looking at the following example.

Thank you,

# Microsoft filesystems do not support colons in file names, but pre-computed
