Express res.sendfile throwing forbidden error

by

I believe it’s because of the relative path; the “../” is considered malicious. Resolve the local path first, then call res.sendfile. You can resolve the path with path.resolve beforehand.

var path = require('path');
res.sendFile(path.resolve('temp/index.html'));
