This is an axios post example:

axios.post("test/test", {userName:'..', password:'..'}).then((result) => onSuccess(result.data), (error) => onError(error));

If you are using spring-boot with Java you probably have a CORS problem. Try to put in your endpoint:

@CrossOrigin(origins = {"http://localhost:3000", "url2", "url3})

Replace "http://localhost:3000" with your localhost url if you need it. This is an example:

@CrossOrigin(origins = {"http://localhost:3000", "url2", "url3})
@RequestMapping(value = "/test", method = RequestMethod.POST)
ResponseEntity<HttpStatus> testLoginUser(@RequestBody DTO testDto) throws TestException {

     //Do Something..
}

I don't know how the server is implemented, so: check if you have a CrossOrigin problem or if you have a security problem with your endpoints.

  • Check if you have problems on ports (like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50591374/mern-stack-express-and-react-on-same-port). At the end: ensure your server.js is running correctly and ensure that you don't have cross origin problems (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18310394/no-access-control-allow-origin-node-apache-port-issue) Ensure you have done all the necessary steps: https://coursework.vschool.io/deploying-mern-with-heroku/ Another good link: https://hashnode.com/post/react-tutorial-using-mern-stack-ciiyus9m700qqge53mer0isxz – Paolo Dell'Aguzzo Jun 22 '18 at 06:46
  • App is on heroku server. I have contacted support and they replied: "The create-react-app-buildpack uses the heroku/static buildpack which in turn uses a nginx web server. Unfortunately nginx does not allow POST calls from static pages. You will need to make a GET request here." – Gurman P. Singh Jun 22 '18 at 08:21
  • So, I think that you cannot edit the nginx.conf file because only Heroku can edit it. Check if you can do something like this: https://m.alphasights.com/using-nginx-on-heroku-to-serve-single-page-apps-and-avoid-cors-5d013b171a45 – Paolo Dell'Aguzzo Jun 22 '18 at 09:54
