I am applying for this issue via https://app.onlydust.com/p/madara

@neelkamath Hello, I've read the contributors guidelines and I'm excited to help with this task. I understand the bug:

To approach this problem, I would:

1. Investigate the Madara configuration files for any incorrect settings.
2. Verify the RPC settings and ensure they are correct.
3. Analyze the error message for any clues.
4. Check the Madara documentation for any known issues or solutions.
5. Test the requests using tools like Postman or cURL to isolate the issue.

My background in software development, debugging, and RPC protocols can be leveraged to efficiently identify and resolve this issue. I'm confident in my ability to debug and fix this problem.

Please assign me this task, and I'll deliver the updated code to resolve the request issue in Madara.
