Node fetch ECONNREFUSED

Troubleshooting and help
1

Hello,

I am having trouble with a simple nodejs whose jobs is just to fetch remote content such as this :
https://everestcast.onlineradiostation.co:2110/currentsong

The error I am getting :
FetchError: request to https://everestcast.onlineradiostation.co:2110/currentsong failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED [139.144.224.37:2110](http://139.144.224.37:2110/)

Is there some security preventing me to fetch the content ? For information, I am on the Free plan for now, until I see everything works normally.

Thanks in advance for your help,
Jeremie

Hey @Soramister,

I just tried retrieving the URL by running curl inside my app deployed on Koyeb:

$ curl https://everestcast.onlineradiostation.co:2110/currentsong
H-Town - Special Kinda Foo

It worked fine. We don’t block such connections, so it might be related to how you’re connecting. Some services could block connections based on the User-Agent HTTP header.

Hello @Lukasz_Oles ,

Thanks for your input. After letting me know it worked on curl, I have tried to replace node-fetch for axios, and it works perfectly.
I did not look on the reason why it works but at least I have found a solution.

Thanks for you help
