hi!
fileStore.exists() returns true on your local machine because the file you
want to upload is already "uploaded" (fp.getFilePath() returns the full path
(on the client) of the file to upload, on your local machine the client is
the server, too). On the server-side you cannot check for existance of files
on the client-side.
