struts 2 file upload problem

[vik ar]

Hi. I have the following code:

 <action name="File_singleUpload"
            class="appl2a.SingleFileUploadAction" method="upload">
        <interceptor-ref name="fileUpload">
            <param name="allowedTypes">
                image/gif, image/jpeg,image/png
            </param>
        </interceptor-ref>
        <interceptor-ref name="defaultStack"/>
        <result name="input">/jsp/SingleUpload.jsp</result>
        <result>/jsp/SingleUpload.jsp</result>
    </action>
   

Now when I attempt to upload a image file (1.jpg) it uploads fine in firefox, but in ie7 I get an error saying content type is not allowed?

The reason that I can think of is that IE is not setting the content type of the uploaded file properly. Try to map jpg files to image/jpeg content type using the <mime-mapping> tag of the web.xml. It might work then...

You could also check what the actual mimetype is--might it be "image/jpg"?

[galne vaibhav]

you are making mistake you mention alloewed type as image/jpeg and trying to upload image/jpg

just open the file in paint save as .jpeg format and try to upload

Galne as I said here, don't put whatever you say in [quote] [/quote] tags. It looks as if you've just quoted what someone else has said and not written anything of your own...

Hi I have put the following in web.xml. Still no luck

<mime-mapping>  
     <extension>jpg</extension>  
     <mime-type>image/jpeg</mime-type>  
</mime-mapping>

Vik, can you upload .jpeg files from IE (as galne said)?? Also can you show us the code i.e. the JSP page where the file upload control is...

Sorry I just checked in windows explorer details view and it specifies the file is of type JPEG Image. The following is the jsp

<s:fielderror />
    <s:form action="File_singleUpload" 
    		enctype="multipart/form-data">
        <s:file name="attachment" label="Attachment"/>
        <s:submit />
    </s:form>
