Request body decompression not working

[Jakub Skoczen]

Hi Guys,

I have a vert.x server with HttpServerOptions#setDecompressionSupported(true) but ctx.getBodyAsJson() fails with "Json body application/json parsing error: Failed to decode:Illegal character" seemingly trying to parse compressed body.

In the client I compress the request body with gzip and set the Content-Encoding header to gzip. 

What's weird is that I have a JUnit test where I instantiate the HttpServer and do test requests and decompression works fine. The failure only appears when I am running the server from a (fat) jar file. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi. again,

I fixed the problem -- I have enabled HTTP/2 in the client build but kept HTTP/1.1 in the tests. Is there any specific reason why decompression doesn't work with HTTP/2 or should I create a bug report?

There shouldn't be any difference between HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.1 regarding payload compression. If you can share a simple reproducer on GitHub or elsewhere, we can get a better or idea of what's going on.
