Chrome Error 330 (net::ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED) [closed]

This can happen when an HTTP request's headers claim that the content is gzip encoded, but it isn't. This happened to me just now on Wordpress where I had WP Super Cache's gzip compression enabled. Normally it worked fine, but when I dumped some content out before the page was properly generated, it screwed up the compression.

Resolution if you're the web developer: turn off gzip encoding or make sure the content is in fact encoded.

Using codeigniter, go to /config/config.php and set

$config['compress_output'] = FALSE;

And this worked for me, but the real solution should be inside apache configurations

I reinstalled Chrome and it fixed the problem.

Reason also could be your antivirus web shield. In my case I had issues with a lot of css files, so I set exclusion rule for css files. Try turning the shield off for a minute, reload the page you have problems with (use full reload, Ctrl+F5). If it works, try to exclude js files (you can also do it for css files before you even get such problems with them) from your web shield
