        errorMessage = `An error occurred: ${err.error.message}`;
    } else {
        // The backend returned an unsuccessful response code.
        // The response body may contain clues as to what went wrong,
        errorMessage = `Server returned code: ${err.status}, error message is: ${err.message}`;
    }
    console.error(errorMessage);
    return Observable.throw(errorMessage);
}
