Error : Connect ENETUNREACH

Question

I am fetching videos from the facebook graph api(24*7) using nodejs. My code is working fine but after every 3 or 4 days it stops working and gives the following error: (Ignore the I'm in loop statements)

Error: connect ENETUNREACH 2a03:2990:f015:12:face:b00c:0:2:443 - Local (:::0)
at Object._errnoException (util.js:1003:13)
at _exceptionWithHostPort (util.js.1024:20)
...

I get a similar error when I try to run a node.js program from rc.local. Runs fine when I run it manually. Curious to see a suggestion on how to troubleshoot this. — Paulo S. Abreu, Oct 06 '18 at 15:02
Solved my problem by making sure network services were up before rc.local was run. This was done by running `raspi-config` on my RaspberryPi (where I am running the scripts) and setting `boot options … wait for network at boot … yes` — Paulo S. Abreu, Oct 06 '18 at 20:21

Check you internet connection . That solved my problem as ENETUNREACH is a network issue such as host unreachable or your gateway not working .

In my case, I just changed the localhost property to 127.0.0.1 as follows:

var connection = mysql.createConnection({
  // host     : 'localhost', // localhost causes somehow this error
  host: '127.0.0.1',

I had a similar error, I disabled IPv6 on my computer and then the error stopped occurring.

I got the same issue. My problem was I still have the corp proxy settings in npm config. My resolution:

Check if any proxy settings in place

npm config list

Remove them

npm config delete https-proxy

You may have more. But after that, the error's gone.
