"PROTOCOL_ERROR 0x1" when using hyper.HTTP20Adapter with python-requests

[pawelmhm]

I have simple Twisted resource looking like this

import sys

from twisted.web import server
from twisted.web.resource import Resource
from twisted.internet import reactor
from twisted.python import log

from twisted.internet import endpoints

class Index(Resource):
    isLeaf = True

    def render_GET(self, request):
        return b"hello world (in HTTP2)"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    log.startLogging(sys.stdout)
    site = server.Site(Index())
    endpoint_spec = "ssl:port=8080:privateKey=key.pem:extraCertChain=cert.pem"
    server = endpoints.serverFromString(reactor, endpoint_spec)
    server.listen(site)
    reactor.run()⏎    

and two hyper clients. One looks like this and works fine:

from hyper import HTTPConnection

conn = HTTPConnection('localhost:8080', secure=True)
conn.request('GET', '/')
resp = conn.get_response()
print(resp.read())

Another one does same thing but in a different way and fails

import requests
from hyper.contrib import HTTP20Adapter

s = requests.Session()
s.mount('https://localhost:8080', HTTP20Adapter())
r = s.get("https://localhost:8080")
print(r.status_code)

Traceback is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "client2.py", line 6, in <module>
    r = s.get("https://localhost:8080")
  File "/home/pawel/.virtualenvs/http2/lib/python3.4/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 487, in get

    r = adapter.send(request, **kwargs)

    return self._conn.get_response(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/pawel/.virtualenvs/http2/lib/python3.4/site-packages/hyper/http20/connection.py", line 293, in get_response
    return HTTP20Response(stream.getheaders(), stream)
  File "/home/pawel/.virtualenvs/http2/lib/python3.4/site-packages/hyper/http20/stream.py", line 223, in getheaders

    raise ConnectionError(error_string)
hyper.http20.exceptions.ConnectionError: Encountered error PROTOCOL_ERROR 0x1: Protocol error detected

why does it happen? Is my usage of adapter correct? Are both clients completely equivalent? If yes, why one works and other fails?

I'm using Python 3.4 on Ubuntu 14.04, OpenSSL 1.0.1.

With your adapter, can you try changing the s.get line from r = s.get("https://localhost:8080") to r = s.get("https://localhost:8080/")?

[pawelmhm]

With your adapter, can you try changing the s.get line from r = s.get("https://localhost:8080") to r = s.get("https://localhost:8080/")?

same behavior.

I actually see that example from docs also fails (albeit with different error).

# client2.py 
import requests
from hyper.contrib import HTTP20Adapter

s = requests.Session()

url = 'https://http2bin.org'
s.mount(url, HTTP20Adapter())
r = s.get("https://http2bin.org/get")
print(r.status_code)

and then I do something along the lines of :

[Lukasa]

Yeah, that error occurs in the released version when using old Python versions. The master branch shouldn't have that issue.

So the protocol error is odd. Does the server generate any logs or output?

Can you please print out the result of pip freeze on that system?

Additionally, consistently get the following error when trying another example from the doc:

Python 3.4.3 (default, Sep 14 2016, 12:36:27) [GCC 4.8.4] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

However, if I use the HTTP20Connection class, then all works as advertised. It would appear that the HTTPConnection class is not connecting utilizing HTTP/2. The same happens in other examples in the doc. I assumed that the HTTPConnection would automatically recognize a HTTP/2 site(Upgade). Is this a documentation issue, or a bug?

Thanks

I assumed that the HTTPConnection would automatically recognize a HTTP/2 site(Upgade). Is this a documentation issue, or a bug?

It should. And indeed, on a quick test shows that it does. The error you're talking about in the most recent comment seems to be fundamentally a result of the fact that we are not reading the response until asked the first time, which means that we don't yet know that we're doing HTTP/2 instead of HTTP/1.1. That example works with port 443, but does not work with port 80.

It seems fundamentally to be unrelated to the protocol error discussed elsewhere in this issue, so I'm going to open a new issue for this problem (which involves in the first instance changing the documentation).
