This was due nghttp2 is old, what version DA is using, for what i check is nghttp2 1.42.0 but some reason is using an old binary.

Which OS is it?
 
Oh, I didn't notice it in the subject. I think it's related to powertools yum repository. I'll try to reproduce it. If you wish - you may send your access details too, I'd check it free of charge.
 
@Kurogane got it reproduced/fixed in CB 2.0 rev. 2638, it should work fine. It was only affecting old versions of CentOS8 (8.2 and lower).
 
Thanks, i confirm working fine.

Sorry to bring another problem here is not related but maybe because same error?

I remember mcrypt is outdated and is not in centos8 as base
You might try epel. Search for install mcrypt centos8

But you should not even be using php7 or mcrypt.

Maybe you have some custom setting in the php config?

This is fresh install so not custom setting

Yep me too on a fresh RHEL 8.3 install - says "checking for nghttp2 version >= 1.2.1... FAILED configure: WARNING: nghttp2 version is too old" but libnghttp2 is version 1.33.0-3.
 
I think I fixed it! Needed to install libnghttp2-devel from the CodeReady repo (powertools on CentOS) and the install looks like it's running fine now - fingers crossed nothing else goes wrong.

Edit: it installed fine 🥂🎉
