follwing the directions here: [Run other websites on the same machine as Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/running-other-websites-on-the-same-machine-as-discourse/17247)

Have the following errors:

> nginx: [warn] invalid parameter “spdy”: ngx\_http\_spdy\_module was superseded by ngx\_http\_v2\_module in /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf:9  
> nginx: [warn] invalid parameter “spdy”: ngx\_http\_spdy\_module was superseded by ngx\_http\_v2\_module in /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf:9

Any tips on fixing this?

Yes since it doesn’t exist. And the issue of spdy value html2.0  
Too bad I don’t know what to do about it

I think that you need to replace `spdy` with `http2` in `/etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf`.  
And install a certificate 😉 it is simple with the [letsencrypt tool (aka certbot)](https://certbot.eff.org).

btw, I have updated [that wiki](https://meta.discourse.org/t/running-other-websites-on-the-same-machine-as-discourse/17247) to support `http2` instead of deprecated `spdy`.
