Description
Joomla 5 delivers already compressed files, but openlitespeed does not set the headers as it should be.
/public_html/media/plg_system_guidedtours/js/guidedtours.min.js.gz
/public_html/media/plg_system_guidedtours/js/guidedtours.min.js
Openlitespeed reads the .gz and delivers the content without the needed header "Content-Encoding: gzip"
Changing the tuning settings does not help in any way.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the response for /public_html/media/plg_system_guidedtours/js/guidedtours.min.js.gz and the matching .js file, then trace OpenLiteSpeed's static-file handling for pre-compressed assets. Verify the response headers, especially Content-Encoding: gzip; done means the compressed file is served with the needed header without relying on tuning settings.
