Description

What happened?

We use a conjure client to talk to a Go server. This call was working fine with Java 8. On upgrading to Java 11 on client side the call started failing with the following error:

INFO com.palantir.conjure.java.okhttp.RemotingOkHttpCall - Retrying call after failure
    okhttp3.internal.http2.StreamResetException: stream was reset: PROTOCOL_ERROR
        at okhttp3.internal.http2.Http2Stream.takeHeaders(Http2Stream.java:156)
        at okhttp3.internal.http2.Http2Codec.readResponseHeaders(Http2Codec.java:137)
        at okhttp3.internal.http.CallServerInterceptor.intercept(CallServerInterceptor.java:101)

It was suggested that this could be because of the server advertising Http2 compatibility and then conjure-java-runtime tries to use it when on Java11+. Disabling http2 on the server side fixed the issue.

What did you want to happen?

Http2 connections against Go servers should just work.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Java 11 conjure client call against a Go server with HTTP/2 enabled, then compare it with the configuration where HTTP/2 is disabled. Done means HTTP/2 connections to Go servers complete successfully without the reported PROTOCOL_ERROR.
