Does this answer your question? [Spring MVC file upload - Unable to process parts as no multi-part configuration has been provided](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37922973/spring-mvc-file-upload-unable-to-process-parts-as-no-multi-part-configuration) — Marc K, Feb 10 '21 at 19:48
Can you provide some more information about your application and the beans that you have defined? Spring Boot should auto-configure the multi-part configuration unless you have defined a `CommonsMultipartResolver` bean or set `spring.servlet.multipart.enabled` to `false`. — Andy Wilkinson, Feb 10 '21 at 19:48

i found the solution: need to add

@Bean(name = "multipartResolver")
public CommonsMultipartResolver multi(){
     CommonsMultipartResolver resolver=new CommonsMultipartResolver();
        resolver.setDefaultEncoding("utf-8");
        return resolver;
}

and commons-fileupload dependency

multipart upload is failing
