Answer 1

userImage is the name of the <file> tag

 public class FileUploadAction extends ActionSupport{
        private File userImage;
        private String userImageContentType;
        private String userImageFileName;

        private HttpServletRequest servletRequest;

        public String execute() {
            try {
                String filePath = "yourPath";
                File fileToCreate = new File(filePath, this.userImageFileName);

                FileUtils.copyFile(this.userImage, fileToCreate);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                addActionError(e.getMessage());

                return INPUT;
            }
            return SUCCESS;
        }

    }
