i have created api in node.js which consume set of api hosted at http://dev.abc.co.in:20081 not every time but randomly sometimes it throws the error
Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND dev.abc.co.in
at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (dns.js:60:26) {
errno: 'ENOTFOUND',
code: 'ENOTFOUND',
syscall: 'getaddrinfo',
hostname: 'dev.abc.co.in'
}
to call those api i have used request node module because i started getting this error i switched to fetch-node npm module and finally replace the code with internal node module http but getting same error
here is the code i have written using http.request
try{
const options = {
hostname: "dev.abc.co.in",
port : 20081,
path: "/api/entity/workorder",
method: Config.method
};
if(Config.headers){
options.headers = Config.headers
}
const req = http.request(options, (res) => {
let data = '';
res.on('data', (chunk) => {
data += chunk;
});
res.on('end', () => {
callback(res, data);
});
req.socket.destroy();
}).on("error", (err) => {
console.log("===Error: ", err);
callback(null, err);
});
if(Config.method!="GET" && Config.body){
Config.headers["Content-Length"] = Config.body.length;
req.write(Config.body);
}
req.end();
}catch(e){
console.log("Exception=====",e);
}
as shown in error message issue related to DNS so i try to resolve this DNS using node -pe 'require("dns").lookup("dev-vsg.dovertech.co.in",function(){console.dir(arguments)}) but still not resolved.
1) Omit 'http://' from the beginning of your demain and all slashes from the end or any path after the actual domain.
2) Try to resolve your hostname:
const dns = require('dns');
dns.resolve("testdomain.com", 'ANY', (err, records) => {
if (err) {
console.log("Error: ", err);
} else {
console.log(records);
}
});
If dns records has been returned, then you will know it's a node js problem and after that we can investigate further. If not, then it's a domain configuration issue.
