-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.4.0
Assignee: (was: Struts Developers)
> Struts not populating form values when maxFileSize exceeded during file upload
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: STR-2585
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-2585
> Project: Struts 1
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.2.7
> Environment: Operating System: other
> Platform: All
> Reporter: lmg
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.4.0
>
>
> During a file upload, RequestUtils.java detects when the maximum file size is
> exceeded and terminates form population when this condition is present. Since
> file upload processing occurs before populating other non-file form elements
> the
> resulting form does not contain data for non-file form elements. This causes
> problems when these other form elements are assigned validators. After calling
> processPopulate(), RequestProcessor.java calls processValidate() to validate
> the
> form and finds null values for the non-file form elements. In my case I have
> the
> "required" validator assigned to a number of form elements which fails because
> the form elements have not been populated even though they are present in the
> request. The end user is presented with the "required" error message masking
> the
> true problem of the max file size being exceeded.
> I am aware of the MultipartRequesthandler.ATTRIBUTE_MAX_LENGTH_EXCEEDED
> attribute that is added to the request when the max file size has been
> exceeded
> but because validation fails the action is never executed and there is no
> opportunity to correct the unwanted behavior described above.
> I suggest allowing the form elements to be populated when the max file size
> has
> been exceeded so that form validation can proceed as normal.
