railway disk is ephemeral, did you add a volume?

right side is image where i upload on railway host left side is image where i deploy it i think it's because i use process.cwd() to find root of my app?

await fs.writeFile(
      path.join(process.cwd(), "public/uploads/" + filename),
      buffer
    );

await fs.writeFile(
      path.join(process.cwd(), "public/uploads/" + filename),
      buffer
    );

but i get this result from

 const files = await fs.readdir(path.join(process.cwd(), "public/uploads"));
    const result = files.map((file) => ({
      src: "../../uploads/" + file,
      name: file,
    }));

 const files = await fs.readdir(path.join(process.cwd(), "public/uploads"));
    const result = files.map((file) => ({
      src: "../../uploads/" + file,
      name: file,
    }));

you've to save the files on where your disk is mounted, make sure you're doing that

Brody•15mo ago

try to mount the volume to /app/public/uploads

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

btw i mount volume /public, not /app/public it's the problem?

Brody•15mo ago

try to mount the volume to the mount point I just provided

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

can we see container file system on railway? maybe it store on wrong path

Brody•15mo ago

your app can, but railway provides no ssh or ftp access try the mount point I provided please

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

ok i'll try thanks @Brody problem still same, i've chage /public/uploads to /public, and create volume on /public, but same

Brody•15mo ago

have you tried the exact mount point I gave you?

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

yes but all public file not found

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

so i change locate file upload to /public and volume on /public but same problem

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

all public file there, but when i upload new public file it'll 404

Brody•15mo ago

it just seems like you are getting your paths all wrong, take a step back and think all this over

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

solved with creating endpoint to return image next js /public path for static file only

Brody•15mo ago

awesome, glad you solved it!

Akmal DiraOP•15mo ago

thanks

watch out, your code might be vulnerable if you're accepting path from the user and concatening it somewhere. https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/Path_Traversal
