I turned on url compression (gzip) and it broke every page due to rewrite rules being used.  Now I get the error message

HTTP Error 500.52 - URL Rewrite Module Error.

Outbound rewrite rules cannot be applied when the content of the HTTP response is encoded ("gzip").

Problem is, I can not access the config page to turn compression back off and I can not find ANY config file on the entire site that has todays date (indicating that it was a config file recently changed).  How do I manually turn the url compression back off without having access to the admin pages for doing that?  I'm assuming this has to be in a config file somewhere, but can not find where that file is or what it is called.

 Using DNN version 5.6

As usual, I'm answering my own question in this ghost town that is the DNN support forum.

 The reason I couldn't find the setting to turn compression back off in a config file is because the setting is actually stored in the HostSettings table of the database.  The following query will turn it off and recover the site if you ever get stuck in this situation:

 UPDATE pf2_HostSettings
   SET SettingValue = 0
 WHERE SettingName = 'HttpCompression'
