This isn't an issue with Hoppscotch. Can't reproduce this issue on https://httpbin.org/get.

Most probably, the endpoint https://postman-echo.com/status/500 have CORS restrictions which can be resolved by Turning Proxy mode On.

Goto Settings (https://hoppscotch.io/settings) > Proxy > Turn on Proxy mode.

Proxy Wiki: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/wiki/Proxy

UPDATE: Working when Proxy is turned on.

When doing a request that returns 200 (https://postman-echo.com/status/200) It works fine, so it does not seems a CORS issue

The same for my local server. When the request returns 200 is ok. The issue only occurs when the same request returns 500

BTW. Enabling proxy (default one) for both 200 and 500 returns: Error: (Proxy Error) Request failed.. Check console for details.
Console: Error: (Proxy Error) Request failed.

I did some more tests:

Firefox 79 Desktop (windows 10): stuck
Firefox Mobile (Android): works
MS Edge (Chromium): works

So the issue is specific for Firefox in desktop

I think it's only a minor browser specific issue with Extension. On both mobile and PC there seems to be no issue. @AndrewBastin

Turns out it is an issue with the Firefox's strong memory ownership system. I have fixed it in the extension with commit github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch-extension@c760da9ecb

The fix will be rolled out to Firefox by the end of the day with the 0.17 extension update.

Closing the issue.
