Laravel guzzle http client not able to catch error using error handling

$endpoint = rtrim($site->url,"/").'/'.env('WP_ENDPOINT');

try {     
  $request = Http::post($endpoint);
  dd($request);            
} catch (GuzzleHttpExceptionConnectException $e) {
  $response = json_encode((string)$e->getResponse()->getBody());
}

I am trying to get response from a remote URL using guzzle http client but i get error ‘cURL error 6: Could not resolve host:’ on line 4.

$request = Http::post($endpoint);

I used try catch to handle the error but nothing happened so far.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

    actually i didn’t work anytime with laravel guzzle but i read something about guzzle’s requests and you should always catch these two types of common timeouts, connection timeouts and request timeouts can you try like this your post request:

        $retry_count = 0;
    do{
      try{
         $response = $client->post($endpoint);
      }
      catch (GuzzleHttpExceptionConnectException $e) {
        // log the error here

        Log::Warning('guzzle_connect_exception', [
            'url' => $this->request->fullUrl(),
            'message' => $e->getMessage()
        ]);
      } 
      catch (GuzzleHttpExceptionRequestException $e) {
        Log::Warning('guzzle_connection_timeout', [
            'url' => $this->request->fullUrl(),
            'message' => $e->getMessage()
        ]);
      }
      if(++retry_count == 5){
        break;
      }
    }while(!is_array($response));

    if you find any issue on this code, please notify me!

    Do not use env() outside the config file.

    Laravel’s Http client does not throw exceptions unlike Guzzle. Be sure to read the official documentation.
    https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/http-client#error-handling

    // try-catch style

use IlluminateSupportFacadesHttp;
use IlluminateHttpClientRequestException;

try {     
  $response = Http::post($endpoint)->throw();
  dd($response);            
} catch (RequestException $e) {
  //
}

    // Laravel style

use IlluminateSupportFacadesHttp;
    
$response = Http::post($endpoint);

if ($response->successful()) {
  //
} else {
  //
}
