React-native axios with ColdFusion component - react-native

Question

I'm trying to send a get request from react native, using axios, to my coldfusion component.
My coldfusion component:
component displayName="react" {
remote any function ajaxLogin(data) returnformat="JSON"{
data = deserializeJSON(arguments.data);
return serializeJSON(login(data));
}
private any function login(data){
loginQuery = new query();
loginQuery.setDatasource("ds");
loginQuery.setName("loginQuery");
loginQuery.addParam(name="UserEmail", value="#arguments.data.userEmail#", cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar");
loginQuery.addParam(name="UserPW", value="#arguments.data.userPassword#", cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar");
result = loginQuery.execute(sql="SELECT * FROM Users Where UserEmail = :UserEmail AND UserPW = :UserPW");
rs = result.getResult();
if(rs.recordCount == 0){
return 0;
} else {
return rs.UserID;
}
}
}
My react-native dispatch action:
export const loginUser = ({ email, password }) => {
// login
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({ type: 'TEST' });
axios.get('https://myserver.com/components/reactNative/react.cfc?method=ajaxLogin', {
params: {
userEmail: email,
userPassword: password
}
})
.then((response) => {
console.log(response.data);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err);
});
};
};
It is returning an error from the catch:
Error: Request failed with status code 500
I am new with axios and react-native. Am I using axios wrong?
Thanks

Answer 1

Status code 500 is a server-side error so you're likely getting a Coldfusion error, check your ColdFusion logs.
Also as you're calling this as a GETrequest you can just open the URL in a browser tab and see if you get any errors dumped to the page (in a development environment)
https://myserver.com/components/reactNative/react.cfc?method=ajaxLogin&userEmail=email&userPassword=password
If this is production then you should see errors in your error logs (somewhere like /var/www/opt/coldfusion_11/cfusion/logs on linux)
