Make sure that your server is running and listening on the correct port. In this case, it should be listening on port 3000, yours seem to be running on 5000.

Check that the API endpoint /api/user/register is correct and that it exists on your server. If you're not sure, you can try accessing the endpoint directly in your browser or using a tool like Postman to test the endpoint.

Check that your server is configured to allow cross-origin requests from your React app. You can do this by adding the appropriate headers to your server's responses.
