Ubuntu – Yesterday Node Express API works locally, today getting ENOTFOUND localhost

I have been working on several Node Express APIs and while they were working yesterday, I have rebooted my machines (laptop and workstation) and they are giving ENOTFOUND error for localhost (syscall getaddress info). I have thoroughly tested these APIs and I’m still getting:

  error:  Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND locahost
      at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (node:dns:107:26) {
    errno: -3008,
    code: 'ENOTFOUND',
    syscall: 'getaddrinfo',
    hostname: 'locahost',
    fatal: true
  }

I am using Ubuntu (WSL) on both machines. I’ve checked /etc/hosts and 127.0.0.1 is localhost. I am lost as to what to do from here. I’m ready to test a third API and it’s giving the same error. I deleted rm -rf node_modules and reinstalled. Still no go.

Any help is appreciated.

    I found it. The ENV export for the MariaDB database "DB_HOST=locahost"

    Hello I’m if there is a localhost connection issue you will try also like instead of

    '127.0.0.1'

    replace this IP with your localhost string and write into string 🙂

    FYI check your port also, it will run on a particular port 🙂
