Gzip on error does not show error page

[leebrooks0]

If there is a server side error GZip returns a file to the browser named latest, and does not display an error in the browser. If you turn Gzip off then you get an error page in the browser which makes debugging a lot easier than having to switch back to the terminal

Do you have any example code that recreates the issue that I could look at?

Will make up an example later to try and replicate this, although so far
panic(err) from anywhere seems to do the trick with me.

@slogsdon this snippet replicates the issue for me.

package main

import (
    "github.com/codegangsta/martini"
    "github.com/martini-contrib/gzip"
)

func main() {
    m := martini.Classic()
    m.Use(gzip.All())
    m.Get("/", func() string {
        panic("Oh noes!")
        return "Hello world!"
    })
    m.Run()
}

@leebrooks0 Thanks for this. It will help in troubleshooting your issues.

This is an interesting problem. It makes me wonder if it would make more sense for the recovery middleware to get the responsewriter after context.Next() is called. That way the error html can still pass through gzipped

@codegangsta From looking at this, what you're describing should correct the issue. I still need to verify that's true, however.

[codegangsta]

Cool. I can look into testing this out sometime this week. Otherwise if one if you want to take a crack at it you are more than welcome to :)

I went ahead and fixed this in martini core.

Please confirm that it works on your end
