Senthur Rajakumar created FILEUPLOAD-299:
--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Error replacing an existing file using FileItem.write
                 Key: FILEUPLOAD-299
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FILEUPLOAD-299
             Project: Commons FileUpload
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.4
            Reporter: Senthur Rajakumar


FileItem.write throws FileExistsException (org.apache.commons.io.FileExistsException) when we try to re-upload (or overwrite) a file.

*What works in v1.3.3:*
 # User tries to upload a file user1.png
 # It is stored in the server at c:\data\avatar\user1.png using FileItem.write
 # User tries to upload the same file user1.png
 # FileItem.write replaces the file c:\data\avatar\user1.png in the server with the new file.

*In v1.4:*

Step 4 fails with an exception - org.apache.commons.io.FileExistsException

 

*Stack Trace:*

org.apache.commons.io.FileExistsException: Destination 'c:\data\avatar\user1.png' already exists
  at org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.moveFile(FileUtils.java:3001)
  at org.apache.commons.fileupload.disk.DiskFileItem.write(DiskFileItem.java:405)
