I am at a loss of what I am doing wrong, here is what I have:

*HTML*

    &lt;html&gt;
    &lt;body&gt;
    	&lt;form method=&quot;POST&quot; action=&quot;/upload&quot; enctype=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot;&gt;
            &lt;div class=&quot;field&quot;&gt;
                &lt;label for=&quot;image&quot;&gt;Image Upload&lt;/label&gt;
                &lt;input type=&quot;file&quot; name=&quot;image&quot; id=&quot;image&quot;&gt;
            &lt;/div&gt;
            &lt;input type=&quot;submit&quot; class=&quot;btn&quot; value=&quot;Save&quot;&gt;
        &lt;/form&gt;
    &lt;/body&gt;
    &lt;/html&gt;

`Port` 5000 is my *Node.js* server&#39;s port.

In this example I am using `POST` to `/upload`, and it works fine.

    module.exports = function(app, models) {
    
        var fs = require(&#39;fs&#39;);
        var AWS = require(&#39;aws-sdk&#39;);
        var accessKeyId =  process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY || &quot;xxxxxx&quot;;
        var secretAccessKey = process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY || &quot;+xxxxxx+B+xxxxxxx&quot;;
    
        AWS.config.update({
            accessKeyId: accessKeyId,
            secretAccessKey: secretAccessKey
        });
    
        var s3 = new AWS.S3();
    
        app.post(&#39;/upload&#39;, function(req, res){
           
            var params = {
                Bucket: &#39;makersquest&#39;,
                Key: &#39;myKey1234.png&#39;,
                Body: &quot;Hello&quot;
            };
    
            s3.putObject(params, function (perr, pres) {
                if (perr) {
                    console.log(&quot;Error uploading data: &quot;, perr);
                } else {
                    console.log(&quot;Successfully uploaded data to myBucket/myKey&quot;);
                }
            });
        });
    
    }

Now I want to post the file that I am `POST`ing, which is where the problem arises.

    module.exports = function(app, models) {
    
        var fs = require(&#39;fs&#39;);
        var AWS = require(&#39;aws-sdk&#39;);
        var accessKeyId =  process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY || &quot;xxxxxx&quot;;
        var secretAccessKey = process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY || &quot;+xxxxxx+B+xxxxxxx&quot;;
    
        AWS.config.update({
            accessKeyId: accessKeyId,
            secretAccessKey: secretAccessKey
        });
    
        var s3 = new AWS.S3();
    
        app.post(&#39;/upload&#39;, function(req, res){
            var path = req.files.image.path;
            fs.readFile(path, function(err, file_buffer){
                var params = {
                    Bucket: &#39;makersquest&#39;,
                    Key: &#39;myKey1234.png&#39;,
                    Body: file_buffer
                };
    
                s3.putObject(params, function (perr, pres) {
                    if (perr) {
                        console.log(&quot;Error uploading data: &quot;, perr);
                    } else {
                        console.log(&quot;Successfully uploaded data to myBucket/myKey&quot;);
                    }
                });
            });
        });
    }

The error I get is:

&gt;TypeError: Cannot read property &#39;path&#39; of undefined

As a matter of fact `files` is completely empty.

I am assuming I am missing something pretty obvious but I can&#39;t seem to find it.
