Hi I have a problem uploading files using jsps.
I have downloaded cos-27May2002.zip from the oreilly page at http://www.servlets.com/cos/ which contains a set of utilities to do file uploading. I installed the cos.jar file in my CLASSPATH and I can access the classes. However, I keep getting a strange error, namely: "java.io.IOException: Posted content type isn't multipart/form-data" In the jsp file where I enter my data I have the form set like this: <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="p_submitted.jsp"> <INPUT TYPE=FILE NAME=mydoc SIZE=40> <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE=Submit> </form><br><br> And in the jsp file p_submitted.jsp, I get all the values out: String project_ID = request.getParameter("project_ID"); and several other ones. I also start a MultipartRequest object and tell it where to save things to: MultipartRequest mr = new MultipartRequest(request,"/tmp/saved"); When I want to get the value from the upload field I do: File uploadfile1 = mr.getFile(request.getParameter("mydoc")); But this gives me the above error. What am I doing wrong? Would anyone be able to tell me why I get the error? Perhaps I am not using MultipartRequest right? If so, could you someone me a simple code example on how to use MultipartRequest in a jsp? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
