Multipart form request throws: Required MultipartFile parameter 'image' is not present

Question

I try to upload an image to a server using the postman. I am using spring to make the rest api as the followings:

  @RequestMapping(value = "/uploadPrescription", method =RequestMethod.POST)
  public  ResponseEntity<ResponseSuccessData> uploadPatientPrescription(
        @RequestBody  @RequestParam("image") MultipartFile image)
        throws  IOException {

But it throws an error:

      org.springframework.web.bind.MissingServletRequestParameterException: 
      Required MultipartFile parameter 'image' is not present

As you can see in the postman that key name is 'image' and in rest api is also @RequestParam("image").

Setting value in content type - Content-type = multipart/form-data,boundaries='--abc'

This is my spring config for multipart -

  @Bean
  public CommonsMultipartResolver multipartResolver() {

  CommonsMultipartResolver commonsMultipartResolver = new      CommonsMultipartResolver();
//commonsMultipartResolver.setMaxUploadSize(-1);
return commonsMultipartResolver;

}

What could be the problem?

But yeah, remove the `@RequestBody`. It's not doing anything. — Sotirios Delimanolis, Aug 18 '16 at 15:39

Please remove the header section

Please remove the - Content-Type : multipart/form-data;boundary='abc' setting in the header part of postman

@RestController
public class UserOfferController {

// upload image 
    @RequestMapping(value = "/uploadimage", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public ResponseEntity<ResponseObjectBean> uploadFile(@RequestParam("uploadedFile") MultipartFile file) {
        int statusCode;
        String msg;
        Object data = null;
        long maxsize = configuredValue.getFileMaxAcceptedSize();

        if (!file.isEmpty()) {

                String name = file.getOriginalFilename();

                String imagePath = "path to save your image ";


                try {
                    byte[] bytes = file.getBytes();
                    BufferedOutputStream stream = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(new File(imagePath)));
                    stream.write(bytes);
                    statusCode = 200;
                    msg = "DONE";
                    data = true;

                }  catch (Exception e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                    statusCode = 500;
                    msg = "FAIL";
                    data = false;

                }

        } else {
            statusCode = 500;
            msg = "FAIL";
            data = false;
        }
        responseData.setStatusCode(statusCode);
        responseData.setStatusMsg(msg);
        responseData.setData(data);
        return new ResponseEntity<ResponseObjectBean>(responseData, HttpStatus.OK);
    }

    }

Add these line in spring.xml

    <!-- mutipart upload configuration -->
    <bean id="multipartResolver"
        class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
        <!-- max upload size in bytes -->
        <property name="maxUploadSize" value="1024" />
        <!-- max size of file in memory (in bytes) -->
        <property name="maxInMemorySize" value="2048" />
    </bean>

In addition to Abhijit Chowdhury answer, if you are using spring security still you can remove Content-Type and just keep your token in the header, no need to remove everything from the header.

Also, it is important to restart postman.

1.Remove header section in POSTMAN.

2.In your API:

@RequestMapping(value = "/uploadPrescription", method =RequestMethod.POST)
      public  ResponseEntity<ResponseSuccessData> uploadPatientPrescription(
            @RequestBody  @RequestParam("image") MultipartFile image)
            throws  IOException {}

add the following:

consumes = MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA_VALUE

so it becomes:

@RequestMapping(value = "/uploadPrescription", method =RequestMethod.POST, consumes = MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA_VALUE)
  public  ResponseEntity<ResponseSuccessData> uploadPatientPrescription(
        @RequestBody  @RequestParam("image") MultipartFile image)
        throws  IOException {}

Replace @RequestBody @RequestParam("image") to just @RequestBody("image"). The first statement is not valid, see - Spring uploading files.

The annotation @ResponseBody is disallowed for this location – Ashwani Tiwari Aug 18 '16 at 15:34
Did you mean _to just `@RequestParam("image")`_? – Sotirios Delimanolis Aug 18 '16 at 15:35
