I’m working on a NodeJS API. For the sake of clarification, we’ll say my API url is api.mydomain.com. The endpoint that I’m having trouble with is /ts/password. This endpoint’s function is to send a GET request to my Teamspeak3 server webquery to generate a temporary password (using the npm package axios). Everything seems to work as intended when I’m running the API locally on my machine in VS Code, but when I upload it to my hosting provider via cPanel’s built-in NodeJS app module, this /ts/password endpoint returns “Incomplete response received from application”
when a request is sent to it. I have reviewed my code countless times, and can’t seem to find any reason as to why this is happening; but it’s even more confusing how it works on my local machine when the endpoint is called via localhost, but not when called through my domain when hosted on cPanel. I’ve also tried reinstalling node modules, but wasn’t successful there either.
