Research direction

Start with the Nouveau Server Installation Docker Compose instructions and the couchdb:3.5.1-nouveau and couchdb:3.5.1 image configuration. Reproduce a query through the _nouveau endpoint and inspect the nouveau_index_manager connection error; done means the endpoint works without the HTTP/2 protocol error.

Description

Following the Nouveau Server Installation : Docker : Compose instructions, when I attempt to query through the _nouveau endpoint, I get the following error in the logs.
