Node.js Express 3.0: handling missing static file

Question

Node.js

Good day.
Express config is like this

app.use(express.bodyParser());
app.use(express.cookieParser());
app.use(express.session({key:'session',secret:'123456789',cookie:{maxAge:86400000}}));
app.use(app.router);
app.use(express.static(__dirname+'/view'));
app.use(express.errorHandler);

If a static page uses a file that is not on the server, then the page goes into endless loading.
Tell me how to solve this problem?

Answer 1

After app.use express.static , insert a middleware that will return a 404 error. For example, like this:

app.use(function(req, res){
  res.send(404, 'Sorry, we cannot find that!');
});
