API Project: File Metadata Microservice can not be deploy in Heroku

JavaScript
1

I have created an app that upload some files and than send me object like that

{"name":"MEHMET SAYIN CV - 10_2021.pdf","type":"application/pdf","size":99771}

I used multer to handle uploading files. When I upload it to heroku I failed.I want to share the logs related.

I also tried to be sure if I set the variables for MONGO_URI,I also set them. Also I created a procfile and write inside it

web: node ./server.js

But it didnt works. I lastly want to share my directories picture. enter image description here

This also my github link that I donwloaded the project .

Does it work if the folders Multer is trying to use already exists? Not sure if there is also an issue with having empty folders, so you can also try having a file at the path as well. It might also be worth having paths for production and development and use Node’s path resolve if/when needed.

Just an FYI, Heroku uses an ephemeral filesystem and is not meant for persistent storage (more info).
