Re: How to uncompress HTTP GZIP data

The http data was captured from all of the TCP packets in sequence, and

I opened the .z file in a hex editor, and was able to see that the
header does not begin with the magic header for gzip files. I fixed
that, but it still doesn't work.

HOW COULD I UNCOMPRESS THE CAPTURED HTTP DATA?

Most probably you have lost data, at least the header part, then it's impossible to recover anything :-(

When the data start with a different compression signature, try to decompress accordingly.
