I had a similar problem until I realized that you must specify a file and not a folder for the upload path (i.e. /tmp/upload/upload.txt not /tmp/upload).

I want to save the uploaded file to a folder on disk. However when I try to run the action I get an error saying I don't have access to the folder. I've tried changing the folder access and also using a different folder. I still get a file not found exception which says java.io.FileNotFoundException: .. (Access is denied) I'm using JBoss 3.2.1_tomcat4.1.24. Perhaps JBoss restricts folder access? The code that runs the struts action is:- AddProductForm frm = (AddProductForm) form; //retrieve the file representation FormFile file = frm.getTheFile(); //retrieve the file name String fileName= file.getFileName(); //retrieve the content type String contentType = file.getContentType(); //retrieve the file size String size = (file.getFileSize() + " bytes"); log.info("File details - name: "+fileName); log.info("File details - contentType: "+contentType); log.info("File details - size: "+size); // this is where I get the folder path to save the image into. String imageStorePath = Init.getImageStorePath(); log.info("the value of imageStorePath is: "+imageStorePath); try { //retrieve the file data ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); InputStream stream = file.getInputStream(); //write the file to the file specified OutputStream bos = new FileOutputStream(imageStorePath); int bytesRead = 0; byte[] buffer = new byte[8192]; while ((bytesRead = stream.read(buffer, 0, 8192)) != -1) { bos.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead); } bos.close(); log.info("The file has been written to \"" + imageStorePath + "\""); //close the stream stream.close(); } catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) { log.error("Couldn't find the file: "+ fnfe.toString()); } catch (IOException ioe) { log.error("io exception: "+ ioe.toString()); } finally{ //destroy the temporary file created file.destroy(); return mapping.findForward( WebConstants.SUCCESS ); } } Any help would be greatly appreciated.
