Uncaught SyntaxError: BREAK statement outside of SWITCH, FOR or WHILE loop

Removing it doesn't fix it
Old C++ habits linger.
The left side:

Post

  "method": "GET",
  "host": "",
  "path": "/CMD",
  "pathname": "/CMD",

And the code with the default break commented

function doPost1(req,res){
var length;
var a = url.parse(req.url, true);
console.log("URL ",a);
console.log("XXX ",a.pathname);
  length=req.headers["Content-Length"];
  console.log("Length ",length);
  console.log("pdata= ",pdata);
  console.log("pdata length= ",pdata.length);
  switch (a.pathname){
    case "/CMD":
     if(pdata.length==length){
      pobj=JSON.parse(pdata);
      console.log(pobj);
      if(pobj.cmd !==null){
       eval(pobj.cmd);
       pdata=JSON.stringify(pobj);
       res.writeHead(200);
       res.end(pdata);
      }else{
       res.writeHead(201);
       res.end();
      }  //end if pobj.cmd
     }//endif length else
    break;
    case "/LOGdata":
     console.log("LOGdata= ",pdata);
     res.writeHead(200);
     res.end(pdata);
    break;
    default:
     res.writeHead(404);
     res.end();
//    break;  
 }//end switch
 pdata="";
}//end doPost1
