title: Why does POST work on local Firebase server, but not on the deployed server?
body: <p>I thought I had trouble with uploading files with to Google Cloud Storage (GCS), but it looks like there might be something completely different that is wrong. (I am not going to post any code here at the moment because I do not know if it is relevant. I will add code if we find something that could help.)</p>
  
  <p>The situation is this:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>I am POSTing (with <code>fetch</code>, using <code>FormData</code>) to a Firebase server.</li>
  <li>The server decodes the post with <code>Formidable</code>.</li>
  <li>There are (currently) no <code>&lt;input type="file"...&gt;</code> in the form, but this makes no difference.</li>
  <li>This works on the local Firebase server, but not on the deployed server. </li>
  <li>The deployed server times out.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>If I instead of <code>POST</code> use <code>GET</code> the deployed server does not time out.</p>
  
  <p>I have no idea what could be going on here. Ideas?</p>
