Re: File Upload Failure in Struts 7.0.3 Migration - UploadedFilesAware Implementation Issue
Thanks for that.
It doesn't look like you have the same issue we did. I wish I could be
of more help.
I can only suggest start with example app working and then implement
your requirements on a step by step basis.
In the end that's what helped us identify the issue and get it working.

Re: File Upload Failure in Struts 7.0.3 Migration - UploadedFilesAware Implementation Issue
Thank you Zoran and I appreciate your assistance, but I believe we are
tackling the problem with a very small application, whereas what we
actually need is to implement or replace the file upload functionality from
version 2.5 to version 7.0.3 in a larger application, where we already have
almost 100% of the issues resolved. We just need to fix the file upload
problem. We will keep investigating—perhaps we should try the same approach
but with an older version of Struts.
