Problem on this part code

var body = '';
    proxyRes.on('data', function(chunk) {
      body += chunk;
    });

    proxyRes.on('end', function() {
      dataRead = dataRead.toString().replace('_JSON_', body.toString());
      dataRead = new Buffer(dataRead, "binary");
      proxyRes.headers['content-length'] = dataRead.length;
    });

When END event is triggered it's too late to change content-length.

Any updates on this.. I am facing similar issue's

[gangstaJS]

I am solved this removed content-length header

[Maxximl]

Use this: proxy.web(request, response, { target: target, selfHandleResponse: true });

[cawoodm]

apiProxy.on('proxyRes', (proxyRes, req, res) => {
  var _write = res.write;
  var body = '';
  proxyRes.on('data', function(data) {
    data = data.toString('utf-8');
    body += data;
  });
  res.write = function(data) {
    try {
      // Modify Body Here
      body = body + '<hr>&copy; 2022 Me';
      // Don't forget to update Content-Length header
      proxyRes.headers['content-length'] = body.length;
      _write.call(res, body);
    } catch (e) {
      console.trace(e);
      console.error(e.message);
      throw e;
    }
  };
});
