Solution

  • Thank you for their response Hightechrider and miaout17.

    Im using apache. I add to apache2.conf the next code:

    <LocationMatch "^/assets/.*$">
 # Some browsers still send conditional-GET requests if there's a
 # Last-Modified header or an ETag header even if they haven't
 # reached the expiry date sent in the Expires header.
 Header unset Last-Modified
 Header unset ETag
 FileETag None
 # RFC says only cache for 1 year
 ExpiresActive On
 ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"
</LocationMatch>

    Bue I get the next error when I try reset my server apache:

    Syntax error on line 256 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Invalid command 'ExpiresActive', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration Action 'restart' failed. The Apache error log may have more information.

    Some idea?

    Edited I found the fix for this error:

    If you have a ubuntu user You can take a shortcut using a2enmod, a command that enables the module for you automatically:

    sudo a2enmod headers

    and then restart your server and voila :D working fine.
