错误：在nodejs中连接ECONNREFUSED问题

Question

while I am trying to execute the following code segment, I am getting the error... What is wrong with my code ?

node.js:201
        throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
              ^
Error: connect ECONNREFUSED
    at errnoException (net.js:646:11)
    at Object.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:637:18)

The code is to get the HTML contents from the URL

function request1() {

  http.get('http://ggggg/status', function(res){
        var str = '';
        console.log('Response is '+res.statusCode);

        res.on('data', function (chunk) {
              console.log('BODY: ' + chunk);
               str += chunk;
         });

        res.on('end', function () {
             console.log(str);
        });

  });
}

request1()

Answer 1

The code for collecting the response seems fine, it's the request causing the problem. You are not passing the authorisation header which is required. If you visit the url in the browser you'll see what's required.

This can also be verified by using curl:

$ curl http://integration.twosmiles.com/status
HTTP Basic: Access denied.

Answer 2

Error : ECONNREFUSED

---

• Is usually arised when you are trying to access a port which is already accessed by another program.
• Double check on the port you are using & try using another port

Hope this helps !

Answer 3

Your code seems good. Actually ECONNREFUSED error comes when the server is not able to connect to a client.

In the code, http.get('http://ggggg/status', function(res){ … }

http.get() takes the first argument as the url which indicates that you are trying to connect that particular server which is currently listening(foreign host).

For example:

var http = require('http');
function request1(){
  http.get('http://www.google.com', function cb1(a) {

    var str;
    a.on('data', function cb2(data) {
         //   console.log(data);
            str +=data;
    });
    a.on('end', function() {
            console.log(str);
    });
  });
}

request1();
