Reinstalling Kloxo Fresh with hiawatha-proxy

[LotsOfQ]

After so many attempts to switched from Apache to hiawatha-proxy but failed. I am ready to do a new install of Kloxo. Hopefully a fresh install of Kloxo with fixed it. So I have downloaded my latest backup already from "Backup/Restore >> File Manager".

Is there anything I need to know installing Kloxo-Mr that optimizing using hiawatha-proxy? I never have any luck with it working before. Nginx-proxy did work for me before but as you said pagespeed mod doesn't work with it. And I know you recommend hiawatha-proxy.

So can you share what the but way to install kloxo and setup for hiawatha-proxy?

Don't use webcache.

Is there more to it? I started with having none for webcache + nginx-proxy. It was working fine then pagespeed starts to have issue with nginx-proxy. Turn off pagespeed and use varnish + nginx-proxy. Learned that varnish doesn't work with https. So I switched to trafficserver.

But without pagespeed mod my google pagespeed score dropped so much. So I decided to turn it back on and use just apache and trafficserver. And that work well. But at pingdom.com my load time seem to dropped.

I recalled you recommending hiawatha-proxy before. So switched to hiawatha-proxy + trafficserver + pagespeed on. Now, switched cache to none. All of the websites seem to load but just hanging doesn't finish loading. All of my websites are wordpress.

I worried that I go through the trouble of a fresh install still with the same issues. I am hoping if you have a guide or steps to share to have this fresh install work well with hiawatha-proxy?

No special steps. This forum server using hiawatha-proxy with 'apache 2.4' enable.

Yes, this forum with 'disable pagespeed' because may trouble for website with high frequency updated (let say forum-type website).

Do you recommend going through the trouble of a fresh install? Hiawatha-proxy does it has any issue with wordpress?

No issue for wp (including subdomain-based multi-site wp; not testing for sudirectory-based).

I did more research on Hiawatha and I am scared that htaccess might be an issue for me. Because I have read that it is written differently.

I don't know why hiawatha-proxy doesn't work for me. I did my best and even thought about doing a fresh install to use it (if it works). But I now remember why I used nginx-proxy instead when I first install kloxo-mr 7. It was because I couldn't get hiawatha-proxy to work and then thought it might be the htaccess. I don't know anything about it for I decided to go with nginx-proxy.

I know you recommend hiawatha-proxy. I saw you mentioned it almost everywhere on this forum and other forums and blogs too, when I did my search. Plus, you said that pagespeed doesn't work with nginx-proxy. So I wanted to try hiawatha-proxy. But doesn't work.

I used Apache + trafficserver + pagespeed + a few wordpress plugins and my google pagespeed scored up; mobile 87 and desktop 94. Never got that before. But the downside is with pingdom my load time went up as well 3.55-6 and even 7 sometimes.

With nginx-proxy + webcache:none + disabled pagespeed + same wordpress plugins my load time at pingdom are below 3.5 every time and even in the 1s. But my google pagespeed score went down also; mobile 65 and deskteop 67.

Is there a way to get mod pagespeed to work with nginx-proxy? Will future updates have this feature working?

[MRatWork]

Nginx will be trouble if apache using pagespeed in nginx-proxy. No issue for hiawatha-proxy.

So, need pagespeed in nginx itself rather than pagespeed in apache side. For this situation, need nginx with pagespeed include.

Is there something or a fixed for it that I can apply now? Or you meant that is for future development?

Pagespeed in nginx still unrelease for KLoxo-MR at this moment.

Thank for that answer. I got I will have to wait for that. Is there away to know when it's release so I can update with it does? Like a notification of updates.

After trying to fix this issue and failed

I am now reinstalling a fresh Kloxo-MR. I have download the backups from admin backups/restore is there anyway repackage it to restore individual domains? Uploading over 3 gb is a long time. I would like to get some of the most important sites up first.
