It's very hard to understand exactly what's going on from your post, but it seems like the connection between the server and the client got interrupted somehow.

Hence the Error: socket hang up on the client, and Error: Unexpected end of multipart data on the server.

Can you provide any more information?

[soakit]

I have fixed it.
Because the Chinese file name, use encodeURIComponent

[91robin]

Any idea in which minimum version of multer, this issue was solved.

Actually issue was coming due to chinese characters in uploading file

[mrmedina87]

@soakit How did you made the chinese file name to avoid using the encodeURIComponent ?

[soakit]

example:

const fileName = encodeURIComponent ('/文件夹/例子.js'); // means /folder/example.js

Thanks!

Using ascii file name, still getting the same error. Hmm... using with nestjs + serverless.
