Which version of W3 total cache do you use ?
The latest version seems to create corrupted file when caching them (as the css file).
For me, it works well when I’m logged in as admin but doesn’t work for my visitors.

That’s interesting … I am using 0.9.2.1
When I log out I still get the performance improvement. Even when I use gtmetrix.com.
There is something strange about the minified files:
http://mydomainname.com/wp-content/w3tc/min/d2874/default.include.1316950314.js
http://mydomainname.com/wp-content/w3tc/min/d2874/default.include.2056143253.css
The both produce a “Bad file param format.”, but the rest seems to work for me …
In most cases, this “Bad file param format” error breaks the layout of any website using W3 Total Cache.

Ah yeah, that’s it! It did not break the blog I was working on.
Now I have to thank you, because when I disable the minification in “W3 Total Cache” and use “WP Minify” for that my site gets another performance boost!
That’s something everyone should do until the bug gets worked out…

For the problem with “bad file format”, take a look at
“bad file format” is the (only) content of your minified .css, .js files.
The real content ist missing.
Sorry for the trouble everyone, please try the latest release.
Thank you for the update! It seems to work perfectly now!
