[Solved] Forbidden 403 when calling our own node

We cannot make a POST requests (in this case calling a contract function) to our own node for some reason. I get the following error:

POST http://167.**.**.49:30**/encode-calldata 403 (Forbidden)

Thanks.

hey, do you do the call using the sdk or manually?

what is the full path you are querying (except ip), also whats the data you pass and corresponding contract?

also are you trying to call this on an aeternity node? It’s an endpoint of the GitHub - aeternity/aesophia_http standalone compiler.

It all happens on the client side, using the latest JS-SDK.

    const wallet = yield Universal({
        url: 'http://167.**.**.49:3013',
        internalUrl: 'http://167.**.**.49:3113',
        keypair: {
            publicKey,
            secretKey,
        },
        nativeMode: true,
        networkId: 'ae_uat',
        compilerUrl: 'http://167.**.**.49:3080',
    });
    const contract = yield wallet.getContractInstance(source, {
        contractAddress: 'ct_TQYquk3e5WGGyj5wCp2T6NRN5ZKQsAFufbWwMh1g2FG9faRQA',
    });

    const result = yield contract.call(
        'deposit',
        [tokenAddress, depositAmount, beneficiaryAddress, referralAddress],
        options
    );

looks alright to me, I think I am unable to reproduce without knowing the version of sdk, node and compiler you are running as well as the contract source.

after I was provided the contract source in private by @kraykov we figured out that there was a type error in the arguments that were passed to the compiler. The endpoint did also return an error message about this, together with status 403.
