I am trying to send multiple files(images and audio) from an android device using MultipartEntityBuilder (java) with http request. Everytime request including files reaches server and is working as expected but sometimes(10%) django server is not able to read the content of the request.

After going through all the links related to this problem, I come to know that this problem may happen because of the broken request That is if someone cancelled the request in between.

As my request is an AsyncTask to the request should not break.

I know this question is already asked. As I didn't get a proper solution from these posts, I want to reopen the issue. So instead of making this as duplicate,please try to give me some light.
