Question

I try to build a grails webflow containing a step which has a file upload field in it. Can’t find a clear example. How can I do it?

The form looks like this:

<g:form method="POST" action="upload" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="file" name="myFile" />
    <input type="submit" value="Upload! " />
</g:form>

The flow looks like this:

def rgdpsRequestFlow = {
    chargeCheck{
        on("upload"){ 
            println "Hello file upload"
        }.to("uploadSuccess")
    }
    uploadSuccess{

    }
}

When I submit the form I get

HTTP Status 404 - /webflowTest/mortgage/upload

Answer 1

The problem was I used g:form action attribute.
The correct way to use file upload with webflow is using g:submitButton

Here is the form code that works fine with my webflow:

<g:form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="file" name="myFile" />
    <g:submitButton class="save" name="upload" value="Upload!"/>
</g:form>
