I’m guessing that there was a problem in Monday’s end. Maybe an outage? Just try again?

The error “read ECONNRESET” happens when the server unexpectedly closes the connection while a client (like a Node.js app) is trying to make a request.

Possible Causes & Fixes

1. VPN/Network Issues
   • If you’re using a VPN, it can interfere with network connections. Try disabling it if the endpoint is public.
   • Conversely, if the API requires VPN, make sure the VPN is active and properly configured.
2. Server Overload or Resource Constraints
   • If the server is low on CPU or memory, it may drop connections.
3. Incorrect Request Configuration
   • Mistakes like wrong HTTP method, wrong host or protocol (http/https), malformed headers or JSON body, invalid query params, etc.
   • Make sure there are no typos, incorrect domain names, invalid characters, missing authentication if needed.
4. Bad Internet Connection
   • Poor connectivity on the client side can cause dropped connections. Try switching networks.
5. Timeouts Set Too Low
   • If the timeout for connections or responses is too short, the server may kill the connection before finishing.
   • E.g., databases like MySQL have timeouts like wait_timeout; servers often allow you to set socket/connection timeout values.
6. Missing Error Handling
   • In Node.js/Express, you should add a global or catch-all error handler to log errors.
   • Also, make sure server settings (like server.timeout, server.maxConnections) are reasonable.
