Selenium GhostDriver/PhantomJS: File not getting u

问题:

I am running a headless script using PhantomJSDriver/GhostDriver and trying to upload a file on gmail while composing an email.

Tool: Selenium with PhantomJS/GhostDriver.

The html code is as below:

Click the "Browse" button to select a file. Click "Done" when you're finished.</table><table width=100% cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0 border=0>
<tr><td align=right>1. </td><td>
<input name="file1" type=file size=42><tr><td align=right>2. </td><td>
<input name="file2" type=file size=42><tr><td align=right>3. </td><td>
<input name="file3" type=file size=42><tr><td align=right>4. </td><td>
<input name="file4" type=file size=42><tr>

So far, I have tried the below two methods to upload a file but none of them are working:

Using Javascript:

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.name("file1")));
WebElement btnChoseFile = driver.findElement(By.name("file1"));
System.out.println(btnChoseFile.isEnabled());
File file = new File("attachments/Alan Morales.doc");
String script = "document.getElementsByName(\"file1\")[0].value='" + file.getAbsolutePath() + "';";
jsexec.executeScript(script);
System.out.println("File attached.....");

Exception received:

Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.ElementNotVisibleException: 
{"errorMessage":"InvalidStateError: DOM Exception 11","request":

Using sendKeys():

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.name("file1")));
WebElement btnChoseFile = driver.findElement(By.name("file1"));
System.out.println(btnChoseFile.isEnabled());
File file = new File("attachments/Alan Morales.doc");
btnChoseFile.sendKeys(file.getAbsolutePath());
System.out.println("File attached.....");

PhantomJS hangs up when I use sendKeys().

Question: Is there any way to upload a file using Selenium + PhantomJS? Thank you.

EDIT: I have also tried the below statement. Although, the statement does not give any error, but it does not upload the file.

(PhantomJSDriver) driver.executePhantomJS("var page = this; page.uploadFile('input[type=file]', 'path to file');");
