Can't get a response from my server. Why?

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I can't get a response from my server. I am using postman and running the following post request:

localhost:4000/users/register?email=test@gmail.com&f_name=testf&s_name=tests&password=test

It hangs for a very long time and then says:

Could not get any response

This is my code:

[user.route.js]
const express = require('express');
const userRoutes = express.Router();
const cors = require('cors');
const bcrypt = require('bcryptjs');
const jwt = require('jsonwebtoken');

//require User model in the routes module
let User = require('../models/user.model.js');

//Make router use cors to avoid cross origin errors
userRoutes.use(cors);

//secret
process.env.SECRET_KEY = 'secret';

//define register route
userRoutes.post('/register', (req, res) => {
  const today = new Date();
  const userData = {
    email: req.body.email,
    f_name: req.body.f_name,
    s_name: req.body.s_name,
    password: req.body.password,
    created: today
  }
  //Find one user based on email, hash their password and then create a document in the collection for that user
  User.findOne({
      email: req.body.email
    })
    .then(user => {
      if (!user) {
        bcrypt.hash(req.body.password, 10, (err, hash) => {
          user.password = hash;
          User.create(userData)
            .then(user => {
              res.json({
                status: user
