Would it not be because of:

ServletFileUpload.isMultipartContent(request) // Req.scala line 79

If you then reference the commons lib, the source of that method looks
like:

    public static final boolean isMultipartContent(
            HttpServletRequest request) {
        if (!"post".equals(request.getMethod().toLowerCase())) {
            return false;
        }
        String contentType = request.getContentType();
        if (contentType == null) {
            return false;
        }
        if (contentType.toLowerCase().startsWith(MULTIPART)) {
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

As DPP says, it looks as though you will *need* to make it a POST
request, and also set the content type to multi-part.

Alternatively, if, like me, you dont want to use overloaded post as
its not very ROA, you can pass your entity body and just access the
req.body property... you wouldnt get any of the useful lift helpers,
but of course it depends on your use case :-)
