The same thing happens if I access the file manually from the browser and do
a save-as.

Only after I open it and then resave it from Excel does it work.

You may try separating the excel file first from the stream  then read
it.

Subject: Unable to read entire header

I have a big problem, and I am hoping for an easy solution or
workaround.

I am trying to read an excel file using POI, but I get the following
error:

java.io.IOException: Unable to read entire header; 279 bytes read;
expected
512 bytes
   at
org.apache.poi.poifs.storage.HeaderBlockReader.<init><HeaderBlockReader.
java
:78>
  ...

If I open the file in excel and resave it.. all is good.  Unfortunately
I
don't have this option.
Is there some way to work around this. I am receiving the file as an
InputStream via Http.

Troy
