If you’re using and keep seeing this error:
Why This Happens
Cursor uses the HTTP/2 protocol to power many of its AI features, since it allows streaming responses. However, not all networks handle HTTP/2 properly. If you're on a corporate network, using a VPN, or behind a proxy like Zscaler, HTTP/2 connections might fail.
As a result, Cursor may struggle to index your code or connect to its AI backend—leading to that annoying “Connection failed” message.
The Fix: Disable HTTP/2
Thankfully, there’s a simple workaround. Cursor now includes a fallback to HTTP/1.1, which is slower but much more reliable on certain networks.
Here’s how to enable it:
This forces Cursor to use HTTP/1.1 instead, which should fix the connection issue and restore access to AI features.

Thankfully, there’s a simple workaround. Cursor now includes a fallback to HTTP/1.1, which is slower but much more reliable on certain networks.
Here’s how to enable it:
- Open Cursor Settings (Cmd or Ctrl + ,)
- Go to VS Code Settings
- Search for http2
- Find and check the option “Disable HTTP/2”
This forces Cursor to use HTTP/1.1 instead, which should fix the connection issue and restore access to AI features.
Once you do this, the error should stop showing up and things will run more smoothly.
