Enable HTTP2 on NGINX

[cPRex]

Yes, when I check with curl on one of my personal websites on a server using Nginx, I see this:

$ curl --head https://somedomain.com
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx
Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2022 15:47:39 GMT
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Connection: keep-alive

If I out in

server {

listen 443 ssl http2;
listen [::]:443 ssl http2;

}

I get the message...

nginx: [warn] the "listen ... http2" directive is deprecated, use the "http2" directive instead in /etc/nginx/conf.d/http2.conf:3


nginx: [warn] protocol options redefined for 0.0.0.0:443 in /etc/nginx/conf.d/http2.conf:3


nginx: [warn] the "listen ... http2" directive is deprecated, use the "http2" directive instead in /etc/nginx/conf.d/http2.conf:4


nginx: [warn] protocol options redefined for [::]:443 in /etc/nginx/conf.d/http2.conf:4

Any ideas?

Since we don't officially support it with Nginx on cPanel, I don't have any ideas on that part, unfortunately.

I was under the impression from Cpanel Anthony that it was.

Enable HTTP2 on NGINX

Is there a way to enable http2 by default on ea-nginx on WHM 94? I can go into each domain's .conf file in /etc/nginx/conf.d/ and add "http2" for connections to port 443, but this seems inefficient (and also at risk of being disabled with a future server update). I'm trying to wring every bit of...

forums.cpanel.net

With that said while it reports that the conf entries are depreciated, it DOES work. But it would be nice to have the correct info to make the conf file up to date.

Thanks!

Officially no, the feature was never implemented: https://features.cpanel.net/topic/22057-http2-support-for-nginx

That workaround may work, but it may also be overwritten as part of future cPanel updates.
