Using this library through https://github.com/panva/node-openid-client , when making the initial request of the open id connect discovery document it throws this weird error

Expected behavior

This request to work.

This request works

• running the code locally on a lot of developer machines
• works via curl/wget from inside the Kube cluster node and pods

But it doesn’t work via node-oidc-client and got when running side the pod / container.

Code to reproduce

working on it, but it is hard because it only fails inside the container inside the pod inside the kube cluster

Checklist

• [ x ] I have read the documentation.
• [ x ] I have tried my code with the latest version of Node.js and Got.

Also reported in got’s repo https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/issues/1515

[franleplant]

also when you do any other thing with the library such as fetching user info, refreshing the token et al should get into this error so there’s no easy way around it.

Perhaps this lib could be request-library-agnostic and so if people really want to can replace got for superagent (to say an example).

You can always fork it and do that yourself.

fetching .well-known endpoints manually

if you use got to fetch it manually (maybe other http library too) it will do the same.

Any clues to solve this will be highly appreciated

There is no bug here, you’re simply asking for help diagnosing your environment / build issues. Please open a Q&A discussion instead.

https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/issues/1515 or something similar monkey patching internals is likely the cause. Or just your kubernetes networking setup.
