node.js EPIPE error

[Jacob Lyles]

Hi all,

I have a nodejs script which fetches an xml file from a web server, parses it, then stores some data in a mongodb database. When I run it at the command line, it works fine 100% of the time. However, when I run it as a cron job, it throws an exception partway through. I redirect stderr to error.txt and I get the following error.txt:

events.js:48

        throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event

        ^

Error: write EPIPE

    at errnoException (net.js:670:11)

    at Object.afterWrite [as oncomplete] (net.js:503:19)

Could someone point me in the right direction to fix this? 

Thanks,

Jacob

You need to add an .on('error', ...) handler somewhere.

Show us how you execute it on your command line and how you execute it as a cronjob (including which user executes the script in both cases).

Best Regards,
