**code:**

      if (file.photo.size > 3000000) {
        return res.status(400).json({
          error: "File size too big!"

    }

      
      product.photo.data = fs.readFileSync(file.photo.filepath);
      product.photo.contentType = file.photo.mimetype;
}

CodePudding user response：

Move product.photo.data = fs.readFileSync(file.photo.filepath) and product.photo.contentType = file.photo.mimetype to inside if(product.photo){...} :

if (file.photo) {
          if (file.photo.size > 3000000) {
            return res.status(400).json({
              error: "File size too big!"
            });
        }
    
          if(product.photo){
            product.photo.data = fs.readFileSync(file.photo.filepath);
            product.photo.contentType = file.photo.mimetype;
          }
          
    }
