So, I am trying to create a comment in my blog applictaion. I am using node.js.

Here is my comment route path:

router.post("/posts/:id/comment", async (req, res) =>{
const newComment = new Comment(req.body);//we create a new category for the database

try{
const savedComment = await newComment.save();//we need to try and catch the new category and save it
res.status(200).json(savedComment)
}catch(err){
res.status(500).json(err)
}
})

The idea is to create comment inside a post.

Here is the server path for the comment:

app.use("/api/posts/", commentRoute)

I think here is where I am missing it. Someone can direct me, pls.

I think I can help you

What's the actual problem? Your post doesn't state the actual problem

I'm guessing you exported the router from that file. If you did then the issue I can see here is that you repeated "posts" in both the router path and the app path. So your final path looks like this:
/api/posts/posts/:id/comments.

Posting the full code will help though because I'm not even sure if you are using express app and express router correctly. But this is all I can see that is wrong from what you posted.
