@macrozone , I am also facing this issue once in a while and it forces to stop the docker container too. Did you find the solution to this?

not yet, i thought it was related to the chunk size, so i lowered the amount of members that i sent to the mailchimp api.
at first i thought it fixed the problem, but that is not the case, it still happens, but unfortunatly not consistently.
I also use meteor so i thought it would be a node-fiber related issue, since the whole thing is in a try-catch but still does not manage to catch this error.
it seems because it uses the deprecated request package which has bugs on its own
so here is my conclusion:
so here i worked around this problem:
diff --git a/index.js b/index.js

}
var result = response.body || {};
+ if (typeof result === "string") {

result.statusCode = response.statusCode;
resolve(result)
that way i can at least handle it gracefully.
i then try to retry the request in my application code. The error happens rarley, so on second attempt it usually works
@macrozone , Thanks for the detailed information. I will try to implement your solution.
if you have the capacity its best to move away from this library as its not maintained anymore and is based on deprecated packages
when doing certain requests (currently investigating which one), it sometimes crashes with
