Hi Reimon,
I just implemented this for the first time, and discovered (the hard way)
each of the following potential pitfalls with upload. I suspect one of
these might be your mistake.
(1) Your form enctype must be set to multipart/form-data, i.e.
<form name="form1" method="post" action="$link.setAction('UploadFiles')"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
(2) Check the Upload properties of the Turbine.resources file.
services.UploadService.automatic=true (must be true)
services.UploadService.repository=/temp (must be valid directory in your
webapp)
services.UploadService.size.max=3145728 (must be big enough for your
files)
I suspect the last point might be Christian's problem in his recent post.
(3) In Turbine 2.1, FileItem.write has a bug. All files saved are zero
length files (it doesn't close the outputstream). Various posts on the
mailing list recommend using the latest version from CVS (currently 2.2b).
Tried this, it's a pain as there are incompatibilities elsewhere between 2.1
and 2.2. Instead, I went back to 2.1, but then included the new
FileItem.write routine from 2.2b in my code.
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-turbine-2/src/java/org/apache/turbine/
util/upload/FileItem.java
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-turbine-2/src/java/org/apache/turbine/
util/upload/FileItem.java?rev=1.3&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
If you do a diff with the latest FileItem (1.3) and the earlier version
(1.2) you can see the only difference is FileItem.Write.
Then my code reads:
ParameterParser pp = data.getParameters();
FileItem TheFile = pp.getFileItem("FileName");
if (theFile != null) {
try {
FilePath = "savefile.test";
write(FilePath,TheFile); // calls my custom write, based on
FileItem.write
} catch (IOException E) {
Log.error("Can't upload file. Exception: " + E);
}
}
Once I got to this point, everything worked great! Hope this saves you a
few hours of messing around like I did.
Best, WILL

Subject: Help on UploadService
I tried to use turbine's upload service, however, I got a mistake,
...
ParameterParser params = new DefaultParameterParser();
params.setRequest(request);
FileItem fileItem = params.getFileItem("filename");
sorry, the fileItem is null.
I had looked into TurbineUploadService, it's method parserRequest(request,
params,path), maybe I am not farmilar with the RFC, I think maybe here I got
wrong, because the first while condition is false!
I hurry to make it out, please send me some suggestions,thank you!
