middleware function not being called

i have this middleware function that supposed to create new product doc into the database:

exports.postAddProduct = (req, res, next)

the function is used in this route:

router.post(
  '/add-product',
  productValidation.addProductValidation,//(a middleware function that validate user input)
  isAuth,//(a middleware function that validate the user is logged in
  adminController.postAddProduct
);

the request is triggerd by an ejs form. but still the middleware is not being called. i will appreciate any help :)

i can only assume in this case :

  • An error is triggered during productValidation.addProductValidation or isAuth, the code would stop and throw a error(or be send to the error handling middleware)

  • you forgot to add next() at the end of of three middlewares, it's easy to notice if you inspect the page using F12 and look inside the network tab for the request that it's being called when the form is submited
