axios: ECONNRESET at Function.AxiosError.from

I am Also facing this issue. I am using axios 1.2.2 version. Out of 200 request 4 to 5 requests are getting failed with this error.

Error: read ECONNRESET at Function.AxiosError.from (/var/task/node_modules/rest-adapter/node_modules/axios/dist/node/axios.cjs:789:14) at RedirectableRequest.handleRequestError (/var/task/node_modules/rest-adapter/node_modules/axios/dist/node/axios.cjs:2744:25) at RedirectableRequest.emit (events.js:412:35) at RedirectableRequest.emit (domain.js:475:12) at ClientRequest.eventHandlers.<computed> (/var/task/node_modules/rest-adapter/node_modules/follow-redirects/index.js:14:24) at ClientRequest.emit (events.js:400:28) at ClientRequest.emit (domain.js:475:12) at TLSSocket.socketErrorListener (_http_client.js:475:9) at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:400:28) at TLSSocket.emit (domain.js:475:12)

Not sure what is the exact issue.

close the proxy servers, it works for me

“axios”: “^1.6.2”, also has this issues

getting the same error with axios "axios": "^1.4.0"

The same feedback was received about a high traffic API. After a week of searching and many failures I managed to identify the reason, in my case the type of communication protocol was generating packet losses, however these losses were not noticeable to the server, there was only one loss and the data arrived compromised.

To resolve this, we adopted the same protocol on the client and server, in my case TLS 1.2, forcing communication with axios, as we can see below:

import https from 'https';

const httpsAgent = new https.Agent({
  maxVersion: 'TLSv1.2',
  minVersion: 'TLSv1.2',
});

export const API = axios.create({
  httpsAgent,
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' },
  baseURL:
  ...
});

By forcing all packets into a single protocol, socket drops and early closures were fixed.

I don’t know if this could help your case.

I think the default on Node JS >= 18 is keepAlive=true. You can disable keepAlive explicitly in Axios to resolve those errors
