[Bug 1552949] Re: the "http2" parameter requires ngx_http_v2_module
We will have a section in the release notes regarding HTTP/2 support for nginx not being available at release time, most likely. We will address that bit closer to Xenial release, however. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nginx in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552949 Title: the "http2" parameter requires ngx_http_v2_module To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/1552949/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1552949] Re: the "http2" parameter requires ngx_http_v2_module
I've currently been testing Debian 8 Jessie, with the debian backport of Nginx 1.9.10, with great success on HTTP/2. The good thing is that HTTP/2 support is not entirely new, being the HTTP/2 itself is based on SPDY, Nginx were able to use the existing SPDY implementation for HTTP/2 support, so although HTTP/2 has only been out since Sept 15, it is based on a module released in Feb 2014. As far as I know, SPDY has been enabled since Ubuntu 15.04. If HTTP/2 is continuing to be disabled, does there need to be a note in relation to there being no support for SPDY or HTTP/2 moving forward? Users who upgrade from an older release would be advised by Nginx to swap "spdy" with "http2", but that obviously won't work if the module is disabled, where previously SPDY was enabled in the package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nginx in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552949 Title: the "http2" parameter requires ngx_http_v2_module To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/1552949/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1552949] Re: the "http2" parameter requires ngx_http_v2_module
Dear Seth Arnold (seth-arnold) and Thomas Ward (teward) Thank you for your fast responses I appreciate it! I was need NGINX for my research project of the HTTP/2 and forward HTTP proxy. Actually, the behaviour of last one when it cooperates with old HTTP/1.1 and new HTTP/2 under high load. It would be easy if I had all the same servers (1xPROXY and 1xWEB) based on NGINX from repository of upcoming new version of popular server OS. However, I can still roll back to willy or even trusty and install packages from NGINX it self. In worth case scenario, I can try nghttp2 package ( a bit outdated in xenial repository), less preferable due only static file support. Thank you. P.S.: https://github.com/c0nrad/http2fuzz pretty interesting tool, I need to get familiar with it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nginx in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552949 Title: the "http2" parameter requires ngx_http_v2_module To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/1552949/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1552949] Re: the "http2" parameter requires ngx_http_v2_module
I've asked teward to keep HTTP/2 disabled in nginx for a little while. We certainly want HTTP/2 support in 16.04 LTS but (a) http/2 is very new (b) http/2 is based on design patterns that have proved to be very difficult to implement without security issues. So I hope to offer http/2 support in nginx via an SRU shortly after 16.04 LTS is released. Security issues in complex software is a given; part of my role on the security team is balancing new features against security risks. I'd feel immensely better about offering http/2 to our users after the wider security community has had some time to find 'easy' issues. (I say this with full respect for what the nginx team have built; I suspect they feel similarly otherwise they would have already released 1.10 with http/2 a first-class citizen.) I wish the timing were a little different: however, both nginx and 16.04 LTS are aiming for roughly the same date, so there's no easy way to get the wider coverage I'd like http/2 to get before we ship our next LTS release. If you'd like to contribute, please consider running e.g. https://github.com/c0nrad/http2fuzz against nginx mainline releases or nginx hg tip builds.
