"errno":-4058,"code":"ENOENT","syscall":"open"

Hi, I am using sampleFile.mv. It was working before but recently I am seeing below exception. I am using Postman tool to make a call. I tried using RestClient tool and seeing same error.

Response:
{
"errno": -4058,
"code": "ENOENT",
"syscall": "open",
"path": "C:\Users\QATools\testdb-api\Users\u000bn0u7yzDesktopOmniture excels files - Copy\omniture-test-data.xlsx"
}

Below is the code i am using:-
var express = require('express')
const fileUpload = require('express-fileupload');
app.post('/uploadfile', function(req, res) {
if (!req.files)
return res.status(400).send('No files were uploaded.');

// The name of the input field (i.e. "sampleFile") is used to retrieve the uploaded file

let sampleFile = req.files.file;
console.log(req.files.file);

var filename = req.files.file['name'];
console.log(filename);
// Use the mv() method to place the file somewhere on your server
sampleFile.mv('C:\Users\user\Desktop\Omniture excels files - Copy/'+filename, function(err) {
if (err)
return res.status(500).send(err);

res.send('File uploaded!');

});
});

Hey @Umesh2Patel can you show me what headers you're sending? Trying to replicate this on my end. Thanks!

@Umesh2Patel any word? Trying to get more information on what kind of headers you're sending so I can replicate this issue on my end.

@richardgirges Thanks for following up. After changing my code I am not seeing the error anymore.
Below is my API. I have added {force:true} and then it started working.

app.post('/deletefiles', function(req, res) {
del(['/app/new-omniture-tests/omniture-tests/omnitureUtilities/*.xlsx'], {force: true}).then(function(paths) {
res.send('Files Deleted! \n ' + paths.join('\n'));
});
});

In my case, it turned out that I haven't created the folder uploads/.

If you encounter this, try console.log(path) and make sure that you have that directory created.

const file = req.files.file
const fileName = req.files.file.name
const path = 'uploads/' + fileName

file.mv(path, function(err) {
  if (err) return res.status(500).send(err);
  res.send('File uploaded!');
});
