Multipart post error

Hey All,
I'm not sure if anyone will be able to help with this but I figured
I'd try.  I'm trying to post multipart/form-data through httpclient
and I'm receiving the following exception on the server:

java.io.IOException: Malformed line after content type:
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

I get this in the stacktrace that is provided from the response on the
server.  I don't have access to code that runs on the server and it
just happened to be running java and printed the stack trace.  It also
appears to be running some proprietary multipart server code, this was
in the stack:
at com.mstr.sound.MultipartRequest.readNextPart(MultipartRequest.java:231)

I have been successful uploading files with HttpClient and Tomcat
locally, but not on this remote server.

I found this thread from someone who had the same exception:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jakarta-httpclient-user/200512.mbox/%3C43A1F4C6.5050401@carosys.com%3E
Which had a recommended solution to
Partbase.setTransferEncoding( null );
However this did not fix the issue and the server started returning NPEs.

My question is this, the file upload works fine through Firefox and IE
but does not work through HttpClient, does anyone have any suggestions
I can try.  I'm also open to any workaround, even shelling to another
program to get this working.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

-james

Hi James;
  Your best bet is to use a browser tool like TamperData for FireFox.  Then
you can automatically filter out other network noise and concentrate on the
info that you want to look at.
http://tamperdata.mozdev.org/index.html

  Not sure of any apps that do posts.

Re: Multipart post error

Posted by James Norman <ja...@gmail.com>.
I'm not sure if this will help you, but here is what I did to get it
working.  There was a hidden field in the html form that was required with
the uploaded file, I simply moved the field from the form to the url.

The form had this as a field
<input type="hidden" name=curDir" />

And added it to the URL like this:
https://www.angel.com/AudioManager?command=upload&FullSizeManager=true&curDir=/

You can add additional parameters to the url as needed.

Here is the code I used to upload the file:
private static final String ANGEL_UPLOAD_URL    = "
https://www.angel.com/AudioManager?command=upload&FullSizeManager=true&curDir=/
";
PostMethod multiPartPost = new PostMethod( ANGEL_UPLOAD_URL + siteName );
PartSource partSource = new ByteArrayPartSource( fileName, fileBytes );
FilePart filePart = new FilePart( "file2", partSource );
filePart.setTransferEncoding( null );
Part[] parts = new Part[]{ filePart };
multiPartPost.setRequestEntity( new MultipartRequestEntity( parts,
multiPartPost.getParams() ) );
        httpClient.executeMethod( multiPartPost );

Re: Multipart post error

Posted by Quan Qiu <qu...@gmail.com>.
Hello James

Do you mind to share your codes of uploading files by adding a parameter on
the URL with a hidden field multipart form?

Thanks
Quan

Re: Multipart post error

Posted by James Norman <ja...@gmail.com>.
Just an FYI for anyone who may run across this thread.  I just got it
working, what I did was the recommended PartBase.setTransferEncoding(
null ) as well as move an additional StringPart from the part array to
a parameter on the URL.  There was a hidden field in the multipart
form and I just moved it to the URL.  This way I had only FilePart
parts in the multipart request.  Thanks to all for the help.

RE: Multipart post error

Posted by Da...@thomson.com.
Sorry about that (sent before finished)

As I was saying, 
For our situation, we needed to set both: 

Partbase.setTransferEncoding( null ) AND
Partbase.setConentType(null)  for each part, then it worked. 

Hope that helps,
Dave

We had a similar issue with multipart posts - we were able to get it to

I was afraid that was the answer I would get.  I haven't done any

Also, are there any applications such as wget that would support

James,

Here's what you may want to try:

(1) capture packets generated by IE or Firefox using a traffic analyzer
or a proxy
(2) capture packets generated by HttpClient
(3) compare the composition of the multipart requests
(4) try to eliminate differences in the generated requests by tweaking
HttpClient's configuration / subclassing MultipartRequestEntity.

Hope this helps

Oleg
