Hello!  
When I use my route I receive an error from createSession() and I don’t know why.  
**My route:**  
router.post(’/video/session’, (req, res) =\> {

var openVidu = new OpenVidu(‘[https://192.168.1.118:4443](https://192.168.1.118:4443)’, ‘pippo’);

var tokenOptions = {  
data: ‘serverData’,  
role: OpenViduRole.PUBLISHER  
};

console.log(‘START’);

openVidu  
.createSession({})  
.then(session =\> {  
session  
.generateToken(tokenOptions)  
.then(token =\> {  
return res  
.status(200)  
.json({ data: token, message: ‘generateToken’ });  
})  
.catch(error =\> {  
return res.status(500).json({ data: error, message: ‘tokenError’ });  
});  
})  
.catch(error =\> {  
return res.status(500).json({ data: error, message: ‘sessionError’ });  
});  
});

**The response:**

Can someone understand if I’m making mistakes? Thanks!

It is hard to follow the log.

Can you please add more console.log(‘xxxx’) sentences in response and error handlers to understand what code is being executed and param values?

facing same error, after cloning and running locally js-node repo, whenever a request for get-token goes this error is printed on the console.  
I managed to find out the reason as the hostname and port supplied by session in generate token is empty, if I hardcode it in node modules Session.js, it works, but is it empty when the constructor is called with proper URLS?

I discover what is it! It given by TLS validation. I added in my server: process.env.NODE\_TLS\_REJECT\_UNAUTHORIZED = “0”;
