this._implicitHeader is not a function #2754

Visit "http://localhost:5000" after running "npm run serve"，I get the following error：
xxx\node_modules\vite\dist\node\cli.js:13753
this._implicitHeader();

I have the same issue and found the reason.

The culprit is the compression module for express which does not support http2:

Support for Node.js 8 native http2

The preview module of vite serve does use compress.

When I start chrome with the parameter --disable-http2 the error goes away.

I guess reproduction of this error needs a combination of a recent Chrome browser and Node . I use Chrome 89 and Node 14 LTS.

gunters63 · 2021-03-31T05:40:10Z

I patched vite locally in my node_modules folder according to the following commit which unfortunately was never merged into compress:

[Fix usage of undocumented _implicitHeader and _header]
(expressjs/compression@dbf7e73)

This fixed the error

patak-dev · 2021-03-31T05:51:42Z

Great finding @gunters63! Maybe you could do a PR to expressjs/compression showing this use case, it would be great if this was fixed. I'll reopen this issue with a bug:upstream label to track this.

gunters63 · 2021-03-31T07:13:29Z

Issue 122 is already unresolved now for 4 years.

If I understand correctly, there are still some hard to solve stability problems regarding compress and HTTP/2 which is why the proposed fix was never merged. So I don't think it makes sense to send a PR request to the compression maintainers.

I would suggest making the use of compress in vites server cli configurable, something like:

  if (config.server.compress) {
    app.use(compression())
  }

gunters63 · 2021-04-01T01:40:28Z

I wrote a comment now in the corresponding issue of compression.

gunters63 · 2021-06-08T11:39:51Z

I also replaced vite preview now with sirv-cli (see comment of Greenheart)

hanneswidrig · 2021-10-14T14:47:51Z

Hey I'm having this issue with a basic templated vite project, is there ever going to be a solution to this? When exactly does vite preview actually work?

jozefizso · 2021-11-05T13:54:55Z

vite preview fails with node v14.18.1 and v16.13.0 when we enable the https server option.

When we disable the HTTPS this error does not happen.

Using Node 16.12.0 here. I've encountered this behavior:
Running vite preview results in TypeError: this._implicitHeader is not a function once the URL is reached in browsers like Safari 15.1, Chromium 95.0.4638.54. In Firefox 95.0b6, it fails if Private Browsing is used. It proceeds to serve the files otherwise.

Niputi · 2021-12-14T20:25:52Z

would be nice if someone could provide a full reproduction in gtihub repo with os/browser details.
I might have a fix for this but would need to be able reproduce error to know If I can fix it

Here's a StackBlitz sandbox (requires browser's WebContainer support) that's connected to a GH repo

Install deps
Run build cmd
Run preview cmd
Open https://localhost:5000

You might encounter some issues running preview cmd in StackBlitz, so it's better to do it on a local machine instead.

My experience, can reproduce in any browser other than Firefox every time 100% on Windows 11 & MacOS 12.0.1. In Firefox, it's either a Private Browsing tab or after some interaction with the app, idk.
Today tested on a MacOS Monterey 12.0.1 machine in Chromium 96.0.4664.45 & Safari 15.1

P.S. For Safari, Apple's using the 5000 port for their system stuff for some reason, so to get around it, you can add --port 3000 flag

vite preview still fails with node v14.18.3 when the https server option enabled.

@Andrevwvm I am also seeing this behavior, my setup is utilizing https: true which I assume is causing problems.
