I am working on enabling http2 in nginx docker. I am getting this error when I calling to localhost. My nginx configuration file as below.
server {
listen 2020 http2;
server_name localhost;
#charset koi8-r;
#access_log /var/log/nginx/host.access.log main;
location / {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.html index.htm;
}
#error_page 404 /404.html;
# redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html
#
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
}
# proxy the PHP scripts to Apache listening on 127.0.0.1:80
#
#location ~ \.php$ {
# proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1;
#}
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
#
#location ~ \.php$ {
# root html;
# fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
# fastcgi_index index.php;
# fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /scripts$fastcgi_script_name;
# include fastcgi_params;
#}
# deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root
# concurs with nginx's one
#
#location ~ /\.ht {
# deny all;
#}
}
Http2 listen port is 2020. I have exposed it to 2020 when the container is started.
docker run -d --name nginx -p 80:80 -p 2020:2020 -v
/home/pubudu/work/nginx/nginx-tms/config/conf.d:/etc/nginx/conf.d/:ro
nginx:latest
This is the tutorial link: How To Set Up Nginx with HTTP/2 Support on Ubuntu 16.04
Do i need to use port 443 ? is it mandatory ? (I didn't use ssl for this)
If i curl this url, response like below.
Warning: Binary output can mess up your terminal. Use "--output -" to tell Warning: curl to output it to your terminal anyway, or consider "--output Warning: " to save to a file.
I know that the page is transferred as a binary in http2. I want get the nginx index page as a response.
your help will be really appreciated.
I have found the solution for this. It is needed to enable SSL in nginx in order to achieve http2. I tried it and it's working well. I found the answer from this link.
