I was having this problem with a client on godaddy. I finally tracked it down to a conflict between apache 2.4 and mod filter.

I was using http://html5boilerplate.com/ and changed the mod filter section to this

<IfModule mod_filter.c>
    <IfModule mod_deflate.c>
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/atom+xml \
                                      application/javascript \
                                      application/json \
                                      application/rss+xml \
                                      application/vnd.ms-fontobject \
                                      application/x-font-ttf \
                                      application/xhtml+xml \
                                      application/xml \
                                      font/opentype \
                                      image/svg+xml \
                                      image/x-icon \
                                      text/css \
                                      text/html \
                                      text/plain \
                                      text/x-component \
                                      text/xml
    </IfModule>
</IfModule>
