Error: request entity too large

Question

I\'m receiving the following error with express:

Error: request entity too large
    at module.exports (/Users/michaeljames/Documents/Projects/Proj/mean/node         


        

Answer 1

After דo many tries I got my solution

I have commented this line

app.use(bodyParser.json());

and I put

app.use(bodyParser.json({limit: '50mb'}))

Then it works

Answer 2

I too faced that issue, I was making a silly mistake by repeating the app.use(bodyParser.json()) like below:

app.use(bodyParser.json())
app.use(bodyParser.json({ limit: '50mb' }))

by removing app.use(bodyParser.json()), solved the problem.

Answer 3

If you are using express.json() and bodyParser together it will give error as express sets its own limit.

app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: false }));

remove above code and just add below code

app.use(bodyParser.json({ limit: "200mb" }));
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ limit: "200mb",  extended: true, parameterLimit: 1000000 }));
