Question

I am trying to upload multiple files from jsp using below code:

When I execute it from my local machine I am able to upload in the local systems folder.
But when I access the same from remote machine I am expecting that the files should be uploaded to the same machine where my tomcat exist ,but I get error C:\Files\`folder/file not found`.
Please guide.How to upload it in remote machine or where the tomcat resides

boolean isMultipart = ServletFileUpload.isMultipartContent(request);
     if (!isMultipart) {
     } else {
               FileItemFactory factory = new DiskFileItemFactory();
               ServletFileUpload upload = new ServletFileUpload(factory);
               List items = null;
               try {
                       items = upload.parseRequest(request);
               } catch (FileUploadException e) {
                       e.printStackTrace();
               }
               Iterator itr = items.iterator();
               while (itr.hasNext()) {
               FileItem item = (FileItem) itr.next();
               if (item.isFormField()) {
               } else {
                       try {
                               String itemName = item.getName();
                               File savedFile = new File("C:\\Files\\a.tiff");
                               item.write(savedFile);  

                       } catch (Exception e) {
                               e.printStackTrace();
                       }
               }
               }
       }

This is the path where I want to upload all files C:\\Files\\ of the machine where tomcat is.

Answer 1

Change your file save path to new File("C:\\Files\\"); . Even, still you have any problem, then create one folder with Files name in another drive E or F whatever and change your code like new File("E:\\Files\\"); if you wanna save your file to E drive.

Note: Since, C drive is the primary drive in windows OS, so due to lack of permission, it won’t allow to create new file/folder in that drive. So, please try the alternative solution. I mean try to change your file location.
