Cannot POST form NodeJS Express - node.js

Question

I have a form which dynamically adds user data from the user into a table.
This is the final form look
When one of these Use this account is pressed it shows, Cannot POST /like.
This is the form. I useEJS.
<form method="POST" autocomplete="off">
<div class = "form-group col-sm-12">
<label for="tagsarray">Enter Tags</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="likes" name="likes" aria-placeholder="Enter tags seperated by a comma">
</div>
<div class="form-group col-sm-7">
<label for="numberoftimes">Enter Number of Actions</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="action" name="action" aria-placeholder="Enter No. of Actions">
</div>
<% if (accounts) {%>
<table class = "striped">
<tbody>
<% accounts.forEach(accounts => { %>
<tr>
<td><%= accounts.title%></td>
<td><button type="submit" class = "btn btn-primary col-auto" >Use this account</button></td>
</tr>
</tr>
<%});%>
</tbody>
</table>
<%} else {%>
<p>You have no accounts added</p>
<% } %>
</form>
This is my controller.js
control.get('/like', async(req, res) => {
try{
const accounts = await account.find({user: req.user.id}).lean()
res.render("backend/like", {
name: req.user.name,
accounts
});
} catch(err) {
console.log(err)
}
});
control.post('/like/:id', getuserdata, (req, res, next) => {
try{
let title = res.accountuser.title;
let pass = res.accountuser.password;
let tags = req.body.likes;
let actions = req.body.action;
console.log(title, pass, tags, actions)
iglike(title, pass, tags, actions)
next();
res.redirect('/like')
}catch(err) {
console.log(err)
}
});
This does not catch any error and the console shows absolutely nothing. The only error is Cannot POST /like.
This is the getuserdata function for reference
async function getuserdata(req, res, next) {
let accountuser
try{
accountuser = await account.findById(req.params.id)
} catch(err) {
console.log(err)
}
res.accountuser = accountuser
next()
};
I have tried with a simple type=submit button with no href still shows the same error
Please help me solve this Cannot POST /like error.

Answer 1

You have to set a default action for your form, to make the route to work with post. If you use href it does a get by default.
To make a post in your route, you should remove the href and put an default action in your form.
<form method="POST" autocomplete="off" action="/like/<%= accounts._id%>">
Then in the line your have the submit button, remove the href (as it was moved to default action from form)
<td><button type="submit" class = "btn btn-primary col-auto" >Use this account</button></a></td>

Answer 2

/like is a GET request
for POST request you need to use
/like/1
where 1 can be any parameter
