I have a client and two servers (both the servers in golang). All the solutions pertain to sending multiple requests from one server to another. But I am trying to implement this type of communication:

Client         Server A        Server B
Request1  -->  Received
               Request 2  -->  Received
               Received   <--  Request 3
               Response 3 -->  Received
               Received   <--  Response 2
Received  <--  Response 1

However, I am consistently getting the EOF error in the response to Request 2. I have read several articles on the topic, and tried all possible solutions but nothing has resolved this issue. Here is the code that I have written for sending the POST request. The same code is being called by both Server A and Server B.

func SendPost(url string, insecureSkipVerify bool, authHeader *CAuthHeader, contentType string, otherHeaders map[string]string, body string, v interface{}) (string, error) {
    bBody := strings.NewReader(body)
    req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", url, bBody)
    if err != nil {
        return "", utilities.GetError("01: ", err.Error())
    }
    req.Close = true

    if authHeader != nil {
        req.Header.Set(authHeader.GetHeaderStrings())
    }
    req.Header.Set(HEADERKEY_CONTENTTYPE, contentType)

    for k, v := range otherHeaders {
        req.Header.Set(k, v)
    }

    tr := &http.Transport{
        TLSClientConfig: &tls.Config{InsecureSkipVerify: insecureSkipVerify},
    }

    utilities.DebugLog("-------> SENDING POST: %s", url)
    netClient := &http.Client{Timeout: 40 * time.Second, Transport: tr}

    resp, err := netClient.Do(req)
    if err != nil {
        // GETTING ERROR LOG HERE IN REQUEST 2
        utilities.DebugLog("<------- RECEIVED POST: %s, with error: %s", url, err.Error())
        return "", utilities.GetError("02: ", err.Error())
    }
    defer resp.Body.Close()

    utilities.DebugLog("<------- RECEIVED POST: %s", url)
    b, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
    if err != nil {
        return "", utilities.GetError("03: ", err.Error())
    }

    utilities.DebugLog("%s", string(b))

    // MAY IGNORE THIS, JUST POPULATES THE RESPONSE INTO THE interface() PASSED AS A PARAMETER TO THIS FUNCTION
    if err := populateInterface(b, v); err != nil {
        return string(b), err
    }

    utilities.DebugLog("Received body: %s", string(b))

    return string(b), nil
}

The logs that I get on server A are:

2019-02-21 18:33:57.579758 +0530 IST m=+80.025904414: -------> SENDING POST: http://localhost:7350/v2/rpc/refreshPublicProfile?http_key=defaultkey
2019-02-21 18:34:13.517802 +0530 IST m=+95.963470623: <------- RECEIVED POST: http://localhost:7350/v2/rpc/refreshPublicProfile?http_key=defaultkey, with error: Post http://localhost:7350/v2/rpc/refreshPublicProfile?http_key=defaultkey: EOF

And the logs on Server B are:

2019-02-21 18:33:57.586869 +0530 IST m=+74.893470343: -------> SENDING POST: http://localhost:8103/publicprofile
2019-02-21 18:34:13.513541 +0530 IST m=+90.819664927: <------- RECEIVED POST: http://localhost:8103/publicprofile

Can the masters of golang http requests please help me understand what is the correct way of doing this?
