Fileupload feature works on my NodeJs application running locally on my machine. But when i upload the app on Ubuntu droplet with Nginx, everything works but the fileupload. I have to say, i am very new to Nginx and may be i am missing something very simple. Here is the content of my /etc/nginx/sites-available/default file
# HTTP — redirect all traffic to HTTPS
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
# HTTPS — proxy all requests to the Node app
server {
# Enable HTTP/2
listen 443 ssl http2;
listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
server_name abcd.com;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
proxy_pass http://localhost:5000/;
proxy_ssl_session_reuse off;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
proxy_redirect off;
}
}

Hey. I had the same situation. What worked for me was to add
client_max_body_size 100M;
to the server block. So nginx doesnt block the file upload. Idea taken from here: https://www.tecmint.com/limit-file-upload-size-in-nginx/
