How-to: Enable HTTP/2 in Apache/Nginx/cURL

Is not available anymore (no more support) can we use the 1.1.1 branch?
I have some Centos 6.10 servers which I want to provide with http/2, so any help is appreciated
 
Hi, @ikkeben ,I had found that, but the questions was more if it was compatible with the 1.1 branch or not
Thank you
 
Try installing OpenSSL in /usr/local/ssl-1.1.1 and use this in
custombuild/custom/ap2/configure.apache

Code: 
        "--enable-http2" \
        "--enable-ssl-staticlib-deps" \
        "--with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1" \

https://toolsforresearch.com/ is running on CentOS 6.10 as well.

Snippet from my custombuild/custom/fpm/configure.php73

Code: 
    --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1 \
    CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include \
    LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib \
    LIBS="-ldl -lpthread -lnghttp2 -lrtmp -lldap" \
    OPENSSL_LIBS="-L/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1/lib -l:libssl.a -l:libcrypto.a -ldl -lpthread" \
    OPENSSL_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1/include" \

In the first place everyting wenr well but the problem started after i executed the yum update command:

yum stops to work

Hi I've a problem with yum, stopping to work. I read a lot of things, but always the same problem. Thanks to help me. # yum There was a problem importing one of the Python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was: /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pycurl.so...
forum.directadmin.com forum.directadmin.com

Tried to make the solution as:
Code: 
mv /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/pycurl.so /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/pycurl.so_back
rpm -ihv http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/python-devel-2.6.6-66.el6_8.x86_64.rpm
wget https://dl.bintray.com/pycurl/pycurl/pycurl-7.43.0.2.tar.gz
tar xzf pycurl-7.43.0.2.tar.gz
cd pycurl-7.43.0.2
python setup.py build --curl-config=/usr/local/bin/curl-config
cp -p build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.6/pycurl.so /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/pycurl.so

But step;:
Code: 
python setup.py build --curl-config=/usr/local/bin/curl-config
gave grrc compile error

Give up set the backup back

YOU NEED TO INSTALL library of python, Then in my Centos 7
yum install python-devel


If you don't want to do anything just move to Centos 8. It has Openssl 1.1.1 in base operation and can easy update openssl

Did you read my post ? it is Centos 6.10 , I know with Centos 7.0 http/2 is already possible without tweaks
We have several Centos 7 an 8 servers, all with http/2 so that is not the issue,
The guide which @smtalk had provided was ok till i had run the yum command :(

I will try later to do this with openssl 1.1.1
Thanks

ok I try to tell you about pycurl that need openssl1.1.x

because when you run "yum update" you'll got update libcurl to lastest version and also custombuild2 can update libcurl too. then when you complier pycurl of python

if you don't install python library you will get error like something that when you try to complier " pycurl " or anything and also if your openssl doesn't support you will get critical error on any command like curl, yum, etc...
 
This is my custombuild/custom/curl/configure.curl
Code: 
#!/bin/sh
./configure --with-nghttp2=/usr/local --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1 --disable-shared
make && make install
make clean
perl -pi -e 's|CURL_CHECK_PKGCONFIG\(zlib\)|#CURL_CHECK_PKGCONFIG(zlib)|g' configure.ac
LIBS="-ldl" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1 --with-nghttp2=/usr/local --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1 --disable-shared

It builds curl in 2 places. I do not know anymore if that is really needed but I care not to change it since it works with updates as well.
Code: 
[root@vps2 ~]# which curl
/usr/local/bin/curl
[root@vps2 ~]# /usr/local/bin/curl --version
curl 7.69.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.69.1 OpenSSL/1.1.1d zlib/1.2.11 nghttp2/1.40.0 librtmp/2.3

Note that I have also updated zlib to 1.2.11 with prefix /usr/local.

In my custombuild/custom/fpm/configure.php73, I also have
Code: 
    --with-curl=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1 \
besides
Code: 
    --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1 \
    CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include \

    LIBS="-ldl -lpthread -lnghttp2 -lrtmp -lldap" \

    OPENSSL_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1/include" \
Yum still works. Live output of 'yum update':

I upgraded to OpenSSL 1.1.1f today on my CentOS 6.10 servers. Build script (in conjunction with the others scripts in the previous messages):

Code: 
cd /usr/local/src
rm -f openssl-*.tar.gz*
rm -rf openssl-1.1.1f
wget https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1f.tar.gz
tar xzf openssl-1.1.1f.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.1.1f
TARGET_DIR=/usr/local/ssl-1.1.1
./config -fPIC no-shared --prefix=${TARGET_DIR} --openssldir=${TARGET_DIR}/conf
make clean
make
rm -rf /usr/local/ssl-1.1.1
make test && make install
cd /usr/local/src
rm -f openssl-*.tar.gz*
rm -rf openssl-1.1.1*
 
@Jan_E thanks for sharing, i didnt had time since my last problem with the script from @smtalk .
I assume this script only updates http/2 and not curl right ?
 
It only installs (or updates) OpenSSL in /usr/local/ssl-1.1.1. If you did not have OpenSSL 1.1.1d in Apache, PHP or Curl yet (using the other scripts) nothing changes at all.

I once had this problem as well on CentOS 6. Yum depends on the libcurl.so in /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4, which symlinks to /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4.6.0. If you install a Curl with shared libs in /usr/local Yum will stop working. If you want a new version of curl in /usr/local be sure to compile it with '--disable-shared'.

To be certain I can always have a working Yum I have a backup copy of /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4.6.0, stored as /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4.6.0.yum.

On-topic in this thread: my CentOS 6 systems are happily running with OpenSSL 1.1.1g and HTTP/2 now. For the build scripts start reading at https://forum.directadmin.com/threa...in-apache-nginx-curl.52590/page-9#post-311589

Hi quocdanh,

I had te same on the step:
./build nghttp2
Click to expand...

Instead of building it I just saw all the Custombuild options. I checked the files and it seems like it was build before. Not sure when, I did not do it, must be in some recent DA updates?

Anyway, I continued the other steps as described in the OP and it all works fine.

✅ change apache_mpm=auto to apache_mpm=event
✅ Build apcache and php d agian
Thanks everyone for the help 💕 from a Vietnamese girl getting acquainted with a Web server 😁😁😁
