Resteasy and fileupload: get no content-disposition error

I have a rest resource to which files can be uploaded.

   @Path("/rest/input")
   public class InputResourceBean {

     @POST
     @Path("{directory: .*}")
     @Consumes("multipart/form-data")
     public void post(final String directory, final MultipartFormDataInput input) {
     }

I've used SOAPUI, curl and a HTML form to test this code and for all of them I get the same error: Could find no Content-Disposition header within part

I'm using JBoss AS 6 and resteasy. I do not understand why I'm getting this error or how to solve it.

I got the same error when trying to using resteasy and in my case Seam framework. The reason for the error was that Seam MultipartFilter captured the request. What I had to do was to tell the Seam MultipartFilter to only handle multipart requests ending with *.seam.

This way resteasy got the intended request, not the seam filter.

My Rest method:

@POST
@Path("admin/uploadImage")
public String uploadImage(@MultipartForm UploadForm form);

Upload form:

public class UploadForm {

    private byte[] filedata;

    public UploadForm() {
    }

    public byte[] getFileData() {
        return filedata;
    }

    @FormParam("filedata")
    @PartType("application/octet-stream")
    public void setFileData(final byte[] filedata) {
        this.filedata = filedata;
    }


}

components.xml:

    <component class="org.jboss.seam.web.MultipartFilter">
        <property name="createTempFiles">true</property>
        <property name="maxRequestSize">8000000</property>
        <property name="urlPattern">*.seam</property>
    </component>

Even though you might not use Seam I would start looking at the framework you are using and finding out where your request is being handled first.

I got the same error using Resteasy and Spring Boot.

Spring MVC does not configure a MultipartResolver by default, but the Spring Boot MultipartAutoConfiguration does.

Simply add the following to your application.yml to disable the multipart resolver that Spring Boot wants to configure:

spring.http.multipart.enabled: false

If you're using a version of Spring Boot lower than 1.4:

multipart.enabled: false
