Supported platforms

• CentOS/Fedora (32-bit and 64-bit)
• Debian/Ubuntu (32-bit and 64-bit)

To install the packages, on Debian/Ubuntu, please run (as root) the following command:

dpkg -i mod-pagespeed-*.deb
apt-get -f install

For CentOS/Fedora, please execute (also as root):

yum install at  # if you do not already have 'at' installed
rpm -U mod-pagespeed-*.rpm

Installing mod_pagespeed will add the Google repository so your system will automatically keep mod_pagespeed up to date. If you don't want Google's repository, do sudo touch /etc/default/mod-pagespeed before installing the package.

You can also download a number of system tests. These are the same tests available on ModPageSpeed.com.

What is installed

• The mod_pagespeed packages install two versions of the mod_pagespeed code itself, mod_pagespeed.so for Apache 2.2 and mod_pagespeed_ap24.so for Apache 2.4.
• Configuration files: pagespeed.conf, pagespeed_libraries.conf, and (on Debian) pagespeed.load. If you modify one of these configuration files, that file will not be upgraded automatically in the future.
• A standalone JavaScript minifier pagespeed_js_minify based on the one used in mod_pagespeed, that can both minify JavaScript and generate metadata for library canonicalization.
