ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR while using electron-updater

Question

I'm trying to test electron-updater, using a repo from github. It starts off detecting that an update is available, and then it starts downloading. But as the download starts picking up speed, this error gets triggered multiple times before the download stops altogether. Has anybody ever experienced this error before?

'Error: net::ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR\n' + ' at SimpleURLLoaderWrapper. (electron/js2c/browser_init.js:105:6497)\n' + ' at SimpleURLLoaderWrapper.emit (events.js:315:20)'

Answer 1

Adding this alongside the autoUpdater boilerplate code seemed to do it for me (tried it twice on Windows and macOS):

app.commandLine.appendSwitch('disable-http2');
autoUpdater.requestHeaders = {'Cache-Control' : 'no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate, max-age=0'};

Hope it works out for you too.
