This is my log after trying to upload an simple image. But “undefined” is wrong and has to be “public”.

[2022-08-02 21:06:09.483] debug: IPX Error (File not found (/opt/app/undefined/uploads/thumbnail_XXX_2020_10_07_0068_0124b006aa.jpg))
IPXError: File not found (/opt/app/undefined/uploads/thumbnail_XXX_2020_10_07_0068_0124b006aa.jpg)

  statusMessage: 'IPX: File not found',
  statusCode: 404
}

I tried this in my middleware.js without success:

  {
    name: 'strapi::public',
    config: {
      path: '/opt/app/public/',
    }
  },

The Upload itself is okay and works well, but after that the error comes up.

This is the Url and maybe the url in the Media Library is wrong:
https://domain.tld/uploads/thumbnail_XXX_2020_10_07_0068_0124b006aa.jpg?width=1712&height=1712

Facing the same issue, looks like it is not recognizing the public folder.

This issue exists also in the new version 4.3.6 … any ideas to solve this behavior?

One step closer to a solution:

I found the line of code where the issue comes from in the file node_modules\strapi-plugin-local-image-sharp\strapi-server.js

    const ipx = createIPX({
      dir: `${strapi.dirs?.dist?.public ?? strapi.dirs?.public}/uploads`,
    })

The variable strapi.dirs.public are undefined and I just added an ?? “public” and it works.

    const ipx = createIPX({
      dir: `${strapi.dirs?.dist?.public ?? strapi.dirs?.public ?? "public"}/uploads`,
    })

Where can I configure the strapi.dirs.public?

I uninstalled the “strapi-plugin-local-image-sharp” and it works fine … this is an issue with plugin.
