I've encountered read ECONNRESET error while I was trying to make a get request through axios.

Configuration is as below:

import express from "express";
import bodyParser from "body-parser";
import axios from "axios";

const app = express();
const port = 3000;

app.use(express.static("public"));
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));

Get request that I made:

app.get("/", async (req, res) => {
  try {
    const response = await axios.get("https://bored-api.appbrewery.com/random");
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Failed to make request:", error);
  }
});

However, it turns out to be this error:

Failed to make request: AxiosError: read ECONNRESET

Any idea on resolving the error?

  • you do realise your `app.get` makes no response at all, right? – Jaromanda X Aug 20 '23 at 03:59
