Error:

Can anyone please tell me what can be the cause of this?

Answer 1

Your code is fine.

You should be able to surf to that URL with a web browser, because it's just a GET. That can help you to double-check it.

One thing that is rather strange, is the double slash in your path: //. Postman is pretty intelligent, and perhaps postman just simplifies the request before sending it out.

Anyway, I tested your code on one of my own webservers, and it works fine (for a different URL though).

Having said that, the ECONNRESET does indicate that there was a connection, but it was closed by the server unexepectedly. Why it was closed, is entirely up to the behavior of your webserver.
