I'm trying to upload a file using spring mvc. My form:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data">
Name: <input type="text" name=name><br>
Email ID: <input type="email" name=emailID><br>
Attachment: <input type="file" name=file id="file"><br>
Submit?: <input type="submit" name=submit value="Done"><br>
</form>
I get an internal server error.
The error is:
1)505 Error
2)No Stack Trace
The form resets itself rather than go to the next page which is a notice page.
To be safe you should always use POST or PUT when doing uploads else you are going to lose characters along the way as only ASCII is supported then.
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
Make sure that you have Spring configured correctly for file uploads, meaning that you have setup a MultipartResolver
, without it Spring is not going to support file uploads.
Your controller should use data-binding, instead of doing it yourself (use the framework).
@RequestMapping(value = "/add", params = "submit", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public ModelAndView addForm(@ModelAttribute PostModel newPost){
System.out.println("Added " + newPost.getQuestion() + " successfully");
System.out.println("Added the file " + file.getName() + "successfully");
return addController.showNotice(newPost.getQuestion());
}
