Express.js req.body undefined
express, node.js
Solution
As already posted under one comment, I solved it using
app.use(require('connect').bodyParser());
instead of
app.use(express.bodyParser());
I still don't know why the simple `express.bodyParser()` is not working...
Problem
I have this as configuration of my Express server ``` app.use(app.router); app.use(express.cookieParser()); app.use(express.session({ secret: "keyboard cat" })); app.set('view engine', 'ejs'); app.set("view options", { layout: true }); //Handles post requests app.use(express.bodyParser()); //Handles put requests app.use(express.methodOverride()); ``` But still when I ask for `req.body.something` in my routes I get some error pointing out that `body is undefined`. Here is an example of a route that uses `req.body` : ``` app.post('/admin', function(req, res){ console.log(req.body.name); }); ``` I read that this problem is caused by the lack of `app.use(express.bodyParser());` but as you can see I call it before the routes. Any clue?
