I am trying to create a multi-file upload servlet. I have 1 jsp page which allows user to select multiple files for upload. On clicking the "Upload" button "UploadServlet" is called which is using "Apache Commons" library for uploading the files on server. Below is the code for my JSP & Servlet.
JSP Code:
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>Insert title here</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="UploadServlet" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Select file to upload: <input type="file" name="uploadFile" /><br/>
Select file to upload: <input type="file" name="uploadFile2" /><br/>
Select file to upload: <input type="file" name="uploadFile3" /><br/>
Select file to upload: <input type="file" name="uploadFile4" /><br/>
<br/><br/>
<input type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
Servlet Code:
package org.server.download;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.util.Iterator;

ServletFileUpload upload = new ServletFileUpload(factory);
upload.setFileSizeMax(MAX_FILE_SIZE);
upload.setSizeMax(MAX_REQUEST_SIZE);
// constructs the directory path to store upload file
String uploadPath = getServletContext().getRealPath("")

// creates the directory if it does not exist
File uploadDir = new File(uploadPath);
if (!uploadDir.exists()) {
uploadDir.mkdir();
}
try {
// parses the request's content to extract file data
List formItems = upload.parseRequest(request);
Iterator iter = formItems.iterator();
// iterates over form's fields
while (iter.hasNext()) {
FileItem item = (FileItem) iter.next();
// processes only fields that are not form fields
if (!item.isFormField()) {
String fileName = new File(item.getName()).getName();
String filePath = uploadPath + File.separator + fileName;
File storeFile = new File(filePath);
// saves the file on disk
item.write(storeFile);
}
}
request.setAttribute("message", "Upload has been done successfully!");
} catch (Exception ex) {
request.setAttribute("message", "There was an error: " + ex.getMessage());
}
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/message.jsp").forward(request, response);
}
}

After clicking the Upload button. I get the below exception:
Although files are getting uploaded. But I don't know why is this exception coming. Can anyone pls help?
