htaccess deflate or gzip not working

htaccess deflate or gzip not working

Hello Its Edwin here

I am having a problem with being able to deflate or gzip my content through htaccess

 

i have confirmed that on the server it is enabled via whm and cpanel and tested it and comes back as working, however when i check to see if it is being compressed it is not:

I have found 3 different htaccess files

one in the root, one in public_html and one in pub(magento root)

 

Can anyone tell me where i have gone wrong? I have been trying to figure this out but so far I have only managed to create internal server errors by ammending. or no change

 

here it the root one:

 

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
