I have a small website I've been working on as part of a college assignment. Last time I worked on the project everything worked perfectly. However, since then I've upgraded to MacOS Big Sur which has caused me tonnes of issues and a new VPN client. Now the frontend cannot make requests to the backend via localhost and I get this error:
Error: connect EHOSTUNREACH 0.0.31.144:80 - Local (ip here)
at internalConnect (net.js:923:16)
at defaultTriggerAsyncIdScope (internal/async_hooks.js:351:12)
at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.emitLookup [as callback] (net.js:1063:9)
at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (dns.js:68:8)
The frontend works fine on its own and the backend is also fine with postman. This is the case with another project of mine too. At first I thought it was an issue with axios and big sur but I have a 3rd project that is running completely fine with axios. The only common thing I can see between the 2 broken projects is expressJS but can't seem to find a solution. I'm at a complete loss with it
