I am trying to set up a proxy on my express app to pass GET requests from http://www.example.com/blog to http://example.news .
I have used the following article to set it up Using nodejs server with request package and function pipe()?
So my code looks like this:
app.use('/blog', function(req, res) {
var url = "http://example.news" + req.url;
var options={url:url,timeout: 12000};
request(options,function (err,preq,pres){
if(err) res.redirect(url);
}).pipe(res);
});
If there is an error, I redirect to the actual website.
It is working fine but The problem is I often get h13 connection error when I do the following:
var url = "https://example.news" + req.url;
The exact errors are:
{ [Error: read ECONNRESET] code: 'ECONNRESET', errno: 'ECONNRESET', syscall: 'read' }
These errors mostly happen when the server first starts but it happens randomly. Does anybody know the proper configuration to proxy a secure server with express and request? and why I get theses errors.
