Nodejs request: HPE_INVALID_HEADER_TOKEN

Question

I receive HPE_INVALID_HEADER_TOKEN on a certain page using request module. From what I've found on Google, this is caused by an incorrect / malformed server response, however the latter is not under my control. Can I configure request to ignore invalid headers or just give me the whole raw response for processing?

Answer 1

The solution is this library: https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-parser-js

So to fix your problem:

1. npm install http-parser-js

2. Add this code before require('request')

   process.binding('http_parser').HTTPParser = require('http-parser-js').HTTPParser;
