# net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

 * Trying desperately to make a basic call to the V2 API. Both jQuery and Angular
   give me this error:
 * `GET http://127.0.0.1:8888/recruitler/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/1 net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE`
 * when making a basic GET. I thought It may be some 3rd party software on my work
   Mac but I brought it to my PC and still the error persists.
 * I’ll post the jQuery call for simplicity:
 *     ```
       jQuery.get( 'http://127.0.0.1:8888/recruitler/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/1', function( data ) {
       	$( ".result" ).html( data );
       	alert( "Load was performed." );
       });
       ```
   
 * Can someone help me understand what’s going on? This is built from what I’ve 
   read in the documentation. I must be missing something crucial.

 * Do you get the same error with cURL, or is the problem only present in the browser?

 * Hey Daniel,
 * Thanks for writing back, much appreciated. It turns out that the issue is directly
   related to WAMP/MAMP environments and possibly only on Chrome.
 * This happened after a fresh install of WordPress REST API (Version 2). Spent 
   a lot of time debugging and eventually it came down to a simple restart of Apache
   and or some obscure php.ini settings: `session.save_handler = files`
 * Take a look at my [StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/q/34959159/1440240)
   question for details. Hope this saves someone the time it cost me in the future.

 * Glad you were able to figure it out!
