Reading Binary Files and Passing to HTTP Component

[Nick Heudecker]

I have the following route:

from("file:{{data.dir}}/query-logs/?initialDelay=600&delete=true&delay=30000")
            .setHeader(Exchange.HTTP_METHOD, constant(HttpMethods.POST))
            .setHeader(Exchange.CONTENT_TYPE,
constant("multipart/form-data"))
            .to("http:properties:{{license.server}}/processLog/{{server.id
}}");

The files in data.dir are ZIPs, but when they're passed to the HTTP
component, the file contents are converted into Strings, effectively
corrupting the file.  How can I maintain the byte[]?

I've tested the HTTP endpoint independently and it works fine, so it's
something between reading the file and passing it to the HTTP component.
I've tried PUTs and POSTs, as well as changing out the content-type.  No
change.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
