When user is uploading a file, multer stores it on the disk. But if user aborts the upload, the "abort" event is caught but the file cannot be deleted until server is closed.

@itsfuad Can you elaborate this issue. How does user aborts the upload by manually cancling the process?

@itsfuad
It's an old bug in multer - #259
In the conversation you can find a number of workarounds - basically you can listen to req 'aborted' event
But it still creates unclosed stream and stuck file handler
