Hello there, I searched the internet for a solution to transfer an InputStream via the PostMethod. I found an article in a mailinglist which is simliar to my code. Here is the link to the article:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jakarta-httpcomponents-dev/200307.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jakarta-httpcomponents-dev/200307.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Also my problem was, that the servlet couldn't get tha params i added. But also with the new content type, it is not possible to reach the body of the request in which I assumed the InputStream. Here is my code since now: final PostMethod filePost = new PostMethod( url.toURI() .toString() ); filePost.getParams() .setBooleanParameter( HttpMethodParams.USE_EXPECT_CONTINUE, true ); try { final FilePart part = new FilePart( fileName, new InputStreamPartSource( fileInputStream, fileName ) ); part.setContentType( "multipart/form-data" ); //$NON-NLS-1$ filePost.setRequestEntity( new MultipartRequestEntity( new Part[] { part }, filePost.getParams() ) ); filePost.addParameter( "url", targetDir ); //$NON-NLS-1$ filePost.addParameter( "fileName", fileName ); //$NON-NLS-1$ final HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); client.getHttpConnectionManager() .getParams() .setConnectionTimeout( 5000 ); client.getParams() .setAuthenticationPreemptive( true ); final int status = client.executeMethod( filePost ); if ( status == HttpStatus.SC_OK ) { ... And this is the servlet final String url = req.getParameter( "url" ); final String filename = req.getParameter( "fileName" ); final InputStream iStream = req.getInputStream(); final OutputStream oStream = new FileOutputStream( new File( url, filename ) ); final byte[] buffer = new byte[10240]; int len = 0; while ( true ) { len = iStream.read( buffer ); if ( len == -1 ) { break; } oStream.write( buffer, 0, len ); } iStream.close(); oStream.close(); The code does nothing else than write the file, which should the servlet get as a stream, to the directory which is defined in the url parameter. The problem is, that final InputStream iStream = req.getInputStream(); returns an empty Inputstream. Also createInputStream() in the InputStreamPartSource is never called. Why?
