I am trying to make a restful controller to upload files. I have seen thisand made this controller:
@RestControllerpublic class MaterialController { @RequestMapping(value="/upload", method= RequestMethod.POST) public String handleFileUpload( @RequestParam("file") MultipartFile file){ String name = "test11"; if (!file.isEmpty()) { try { byte[] bytes = file.getBytes(); BufferedOutputStream stream = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(new File(name +"-uploaded"))); stream.write(bytes); stream.close(); return "You successfully uploaded "+ name +" into "+ name +"-uploaded !"; } catch (Exception e) { return "You failed to upload "+ name +" => "+ e.getMessage(); } } else { return "You failed to upload "+ name +" because the file was empty."; } }}
and then i used postman to send a pdf:
But the server crashes with the error:
.MultipartException: Current request is not a multipart request
Again i have found this, and added a bean.xml
file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd"><bean id="multipartResolver" class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver"></bean></beans>
Unfortunately, it still complains with the same error.
