Problem with Codestriker. Cannot login/register or anything

Question

Is there anyone here has installed and configured Codestriker on Ubuntu? I'm seeking some help.

I've just installed Codestriker on my server Ubuntu 9.x.

I've run the page: http://myserver_address/codestriker/codestriker.pl on a client machine and got the login page show up.

However, if I try to create a new account, after I put in an email address and hit register I got the following error:

 The webpage at
http://myserver_address/codestriker/codestriker.pl?action=add_new_user
might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new
web address.
 Error 330 (net::ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED): Unknown error.

If I go back to the create new account page and type in the same email address I've just used earlier to register it will tell me that:

 User account email_address@gmail.com already exists.

What did I miss in the configuration? How do I fix it now?

Also, in codestriker.conf, I've specified admin email in $admin_users=['email_address@gmail.com']. But I don't know where the password for this admin account is specified. Can someone explain please?

I figured out the problem was some setting of compression option in configuration file. By turning off compression, the problem is solved.

  $use_compression = 0;
