"Could not get any response" - "There was an error connecting to ."

Hi,

My Postman is returning the following error when I try to send a GET request:

"Could not get any response

There was an error connecting to ."

The “error connecting to” message would usually include the endpoint that is in question, but in my case, it is blank, and ends the sentence with a period ‘.’.

Within the Postman console, I see this error (in red) for the GET:

“Error: socket hang up”

I have attached screenshots.

*App information

  • Native Postman App
  • Postman Version 7.3.2
  • Mac OS: Mojave 10.14.5

*Additional context

  1. The same GET request IS able to reach the endpoint via curl within a shell.
  2. My SSL cert verification is disabled (see screenshot)

Glad to see I’m not the only one encountering this. I’m seeing the exact same error except on Windows 10 version 1903. I only started seeing this happen yesterday. Also using self signed certs, one as a PFX, and the other as a CRT/Key file pair

UPDATE try downgrading your version of Postman to 7.2.2, should be the main version available on the website. I’m not running into this issue anymore after downgrading to the older version
