How to send xml post params with the help of node.js

Trying to post XML data to following url via node js:-

var request = require("request");
var utf8 = require('utf8');



var abc = '<ENVELOPE><HEADER><TALLYREQUEST>Export Data</TALLYREQUEST></HEADER><BODY><EXPORTDATA><REQUESTDESC><REPORTNAME>Stock Summary</REPORTNAME><STATICVARIABLES><EXPLODEFLAG>Yes</EXPLODEFLAG><SVEXPORTFORMAT>$$SysName:XML</SVEXPORTFORMAT><ACCOUNTTYPE>All Inventory Masters</ACCOUNTTYPE></STATICVARIABLES></REQUESTDESC></EXPORTDATA></BODY></ENVELOPE>';

request.post({
    url:"http://192.168.1.148",
    port: 9000,
    method:"POST",
    headers:{
        'Content-Type': 'application/xml',
    },
     body: abc
},
function(error, response, body){
    console.log(response.statusCode);
    console.log(body);
    console.log(error);
});

But interpreter is showing following error:-

console.log(response.statusCode);
                    ^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'statusCode' of undefined
at Request._callback (C:\Users\bliscar\prog10.js:18:25)
at self.callback (C:\Users\bliscar\node_modules\request\request.js:198:22)
at Request.emit (events.js:107:17)
at Request.onRequestError (C:\Users\bliscar\node_modules\request\request.js:

861:8) at ClientRequest.emit (events.js:107:17) at Socket.socketErrorListener (_http_client.js:271:9) at Socket.emit (events.js:107:17) at net.js:459:14 at process._tickCallback (node.js:355:11)

Not able to work out what's the issue. Please help to resolve.

Try this :-

    var request = require("request");
var utf8 = require('utf8');



var abc = '<ENVELOPE>
          <HEADER>
                    <VERSION>1</VERSION>
                    <STATUS>1</STATUS>
          </HEADER>
</ENVELOPE><ENVELOPE><HEADER><TALLYREQUEST>Export Data</TALLYREQUEST></HEADER><BODY><EXPORTDATA><REQUESTDESC><REPORTNAME>Stock Summary</REPORTNAME><STATICVARIABLES><EXPLODEFLAG>Yes</EXPLODEFLAG><SVEXPORTFORMAT>$$SysName:XML</SVEXPORTFORMAT><ACCOUNTTYPE>All Inventory Masters</ACCOUNTTYPE></STATICVARIABLES></REQUESTDESC></EXPORTDATA></BODY></ENVELOPE>';

request.post({
    url:"http://192.168.1.148",
    port: 9000,
    method:"POST",
    headers:{
        'Content-Type': 'application/xml',
    },
     body: abc
},
function(error, response, body){
    console.log(response.statusCode);
    console.log(body);
    console.log(error);
});

Basically add versioning of tally in your xml. It won't show any error and xml will be synced

response is udnefined. This usualy happens when the server did not respond to the request.
