Nodejs request timeout when making an http request while resolving a post request to my server
I am writing a server in NodeJS and Koa that forwards each request to another server with a HEAD request and if the response is OK, it continues dealing with the request.
The middleware that does this looks like this:
//basicAuth.js
import axios from 'axios'
export default async function(ctx,next) {
console.log(ctx.headers)
let result = await axios({
url: process.env.USER_SERVICE_LOGIN_PATH,
baseURL: process.env.USER_SERVICE_BASE_URL,
method: 'HEAD',
headers: ctx.headers,
timeout: 5000
})
await next()
}
This is used by my server as a middleware:
app.use(basicAuth)
The other service checks the headers and responds with 200 or 401.
This works fine whenever I receive a GET request to my server. But when I receive a POST request, the other server that I am reaching out to in the axios call throws an ERCONNRESET error and the connection times out. Take a look at my code for this route and some others:
router.get('/', async ctx => {
ctx.set('Allow','GET, POST')
try {
if (ctx.get('error')) throw new Error(ctx.get('error'))
let res = await db.getCourses({...ctx.query})
ctx.status = status.OK
ctx.body = res
}
catch(err) {
ctx.status = status.BAD_REQUEST
ctx.body = {status: status.BAD_REQUEST, message: err.message}
}
})
router.post('/create', async ctx => {
ctx.set('Allow','POST')
try {
if (ctx.get('error')) throw new Error(ctx.get('error'))
let res = await db.postCourse({data: ctx.request.body})
ctx.status = status.OK
ctx.body = res
}
catch(err) {
ctx.status = status.BAD_REQUEST
ctx.body = {status: status.BAD_REQUEST, message: err.message}
}
})
This is very strange behaviour and my only guess at why this is happening is there is some sort of header or something that breaks the request. I logged the headers passed in the axios call , as a consequence of requesting POST /create.
{ 'content-type': 'application/json',
'cache-control': 'no-cache',
'postman-token': '561fca27-f23a-4ae8-ba05-5fbeef0f0d20',
'user-agent': 'PostmanRuntime/7.4.0',
accept: '*/*',
host: 'localhost:3031',
'accept-encoding': 'gzip, deflate',
'content-length': '122',
connection: 'keep-alive' }
Any idea why my axios call doesn't go through when I access POST /create. The only output I get from the other server is ERRCONRESET, the route I am trying to access is not even reached, I tested with console.logs.
