Although it's not actually clear from the HTTP/2 spec, shouldn't this be HTTP/2, not HTTP/2.0?

Ref: Is it HTTP/2.0 or HTTP/2?

comment:4 by Ilyas Bakirov, 8 years ago

As far as I know protocol name is HTTP/2 but protocol number is HTTP/2.0

Almost I used servers like Jetty and Apache2 use HTTP/2.0 as http version

According to RFC7230 HTTP/2 isn't a valid HTTP-Version token, and since the variable is mostly used in access-logs it should be compatible to what most log parsers expect here.

Replying to vbart:

and since the variable is mostly used in access-logs

Hmmm, I wouldn't be so sure...

I came across at least 3 instances where this would cause trouble or at least minor inconveniences:

SpotWeb:
https://github.com/spotweb/spotweb/blob/master/settings.php#L31
https://github.com/spotweb/spotweb/blob/master/lib/SpotCommandline.php#L21

OwnCloud:
https://github.com/owncloud/core/blob/master/lib/private/response.php#L77
https://github.com/owncloud/core/blob/master/lib/private/appframework/dependencyinjection/dicontainer.php#L255

PHP documentation: (granted, 6yr old comment)
http://php.net/manual/en/function.header.php#92305

I used the following construction on several occasions (PHP, not saying this is "good code"):

header(sprintf("%s 404 Not Found", isset($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL']) ? $_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'] : 'HTTP/1.0'));

For now, I 'solved' it by changing /etc/nginx/factcgi_params:

#fastcgi_param  SERVER_PROTOCOL    $server_protocol;
fastcgi_param  SERVER_PROTOCOL    HTTP/2.0;

The release of 1.9.6 would be very welcome to me ;-)
