I need to download files that i have uploaded with multer and make it in the storage express side in the root in the folder name /uploads and i insert the path in the database i get the path from the database
the problem that when i download the file the file download when i click on it this is what i get
Unable to access your file
It may have been moved, modified or deleted.
ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
this is the code in frontend side
tableCondition = currentPosts2.map((p, key) => (
<tr key={key}>
<td>{key + 1}</td>
<td>{p.id_bon}</td>
<td>{p.nom_fournisseur}</td>
<td>{p.acheteur}</td>
<td>{p.livreur}</td>
<td>{p.type_bon}</td>
<td><a href={`/download/${p.scanne_bon}`} download>Download Uploaded File</a></td>
<td>{p.recepteur}</td>
<td>{dateNow(p.datee)}</td>
<td>{p.heure}</td>
</tr>
));
this is the back end side and also i did this
app.use('/download', express.static('uploads'));
router.get('/download/:fileName', (req, res) => {
const fileName = req.params.fileName;
const filePath = path.join(__dirname, '../uploads', fileName);
// Check if the file exists
if (fs.existsSync(filePath)) {
// Set the appropriate headers for the download
res.setHeader('Content-Disposition', `attachment; filename="${fileName}"`);
res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/octet-stream');
// Send the file as a response
res.sendFile(filePath);
} else {
res.status(404).json({ error: 'File not found' });
}
});
