Can not save the file, pipe is undefined

[afcastano]

Hi, after the upload completes, I try to save the file according to your example using the mv function but I always get this exception:

TypeError: this.data.pipe is not a function
at Object.req.files.(anonymous function).mv (/Users/pam/Documents/pipe/server-file-browser/node_modules/express-fileupload/jslib/index.js:40:25)

I am running on node 4.2.2 and express 4.8.1

Temporary I had to save the data manually.

Thanks for your help!
