Write ECONNRESET error - node.js

Question

I watched some possible answers to my problem but I can't find a way to solve it.
When I call localhost:3000/users/create_account, I have an error ECONNRESET.
It concerns this service:
router.post('/create_account', function (req, res, next) {
const results = [];
client.connect();
// Grab data from http request
const data = {
username: req.body.username, name: req.body.user,
firstname: req.body.firstname, email: req.body.email,
location: req.body.location
};
// Get a Postgres client from the connection pool
client.connect('error', function (err, data) {
// Handle connection errors
if (err) {
done();
console.log(err);
return res.status(500).json({ success: false, data: err });
}
const queryInsert = 'INSERT INTO Users(username, name,'
+ 'firstname, email, location) values($1, $2, $3, $4, $5)';
const values = [data.username, data.name,
data.firstname, data.email, data.location];
// SQL Query > Insert Data into Users
client.query(queryInsert, values, (err, res) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err.stack)
} else {
query.on('end', () => {
done();
Promise.all([queryInsert])
.then(() => client.end()).catch(err => console.log(err));
return res.json(results);
});
};
});
Is someone have an idea of what causes that and how to resolve this problem, please?
This is the complete error:

You don't seem to be following the correct API for error handling. From the docs, there is no overload of client.connect() that takes a string as the first parameter. It may be attempting to use that value as a password or other config value based on the error stack.
What you want to use instead is:
client.on('error', (err) => {
// do whatever. Though again you're calling a `done` that doesn't seem defined, and some other concerns.
});
