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?
