Looks to me like it's trying to get the content-type of the submit but
the Content-Type line is showing up as just "Cont". It's likely your
web server is at fault. An email from Suvinay (below) diagnosed a
similar problem with regards to the boundary separator not returning
correctly.
I'm swamped with work right now, so if you're having problems I
recommend you roll up your sleeves and go hunting. Use the debugging
techniques described in Chapter 13. Run SocketWatch to see exactly what
the client is sending to the server. Is it formatted correctly? Then
run your servlet in a debugger or with a lot of println() calls to see
how it parses the client's data. Is it making a false assumption?
You should quickly be able to find the disconnect. Please post back to
the list with what you find and we'll see what can be done.
