Compression not working!

[claiver]

I have been struggling with this problem for a few days now. I'm running ArrowChat for integration with IP.Board. I have two different dedicated servers available, one on which I did manage to get the ArrowChat working right out of the box and one on which it simply gives me an 330 (ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED) error.

Now the funny thing is, on both servers I run the (same) latest version of WampServer. The dedicated server on which the system does work does not have deflate, headers or php_zip enabled, which leads me to believe these are not required for this to work.

I did a clean re-installation of the WampServer x86 on -both- servers with no change: the server on which it worked it still worked, and the other one simply fails to behave accordingly. There are no errors in the apache_errors.log that help me, either.

I'm running the trial version of ArrowChat which is loaded through an ionCube-loader.

When running this software on my localhost with the same configuration, it works flawlessly as well..! It's important for my forum software to run on the dedicated server that is currently not working, so a solution to this problem (or hints) would be absolutely fantastic.

All the compression is done in the .htaccess file and external.php (which will be encoded in the trial) so you could just remove/add anything you want.

The weird thing is, it works just fine on another (fresh) installation of IPB.
What could possibly cause this 330 Error?

I did not seem to find any options to toggle/modify the compression feature in the .htaccess or external.php file.

I've tried adding the installation to another installation and when browsing to external.php or external.php?type=css then it gives the following error:

The webpage at http://replaced-site.com/arrowchat/external.php might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
Error 330 (net::ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED): Unknown error.



This gives me reason to believe that there might be a programming issue here, something that goes wrong? I can't find any errors in my logs...
