That's why it should be an option. Adding a boolean property to control this
behavior would be a minor enhancement. I've seen this issue come up before in
server environments, so this request is definitely not unusual. And in fact,
this would be a feature I would want to use often with my own customers. To
have it supported officially by Commons Upload would be beneficial and, I
think, warranted.

> Remove FileItems if FileUploadBase.parseRequest() fails

> Key: FILEUPLOAD-141
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FILEUPLOAD-141
> Project: Commons FileUpload
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Environment: commons-fileupload is used for parsing
> multipart/form-data POST requests in servlets.
> OS: Linux
> Reporter: Marcus Klein
>
> If the method FileUploadBase.parseRequest() throws a FileUploadException, the
> already parsed FileItem objects are not accessible and removed by the garbage
> collector. Now expect a fileupload that fills the servers hard disc with
> FileItems until no space is left on the device. The method parseRequest()
> throws a FileUploadException and there are several FileItem objects that
> still exist in the device because the garbage collector does not run and
> removes them. This causes failing fileuploads until the garbage collector
> runs and removes the lost FileItem objects. I suggest calling
> FileItem.delete() on all FileItem objects created in the method
> FileUploadBase.parseRequest() if the method is left with a
> FileUploadException.
