Question

I upload a file into server and read the file from server, when I open the folder in server I see the uploaded file but when I try to access the file to process it gives me the following exception :

java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Servers\apache-tomcat-7.0.27\webapps\acct\accesscarddata (Access is denied)

Update :

code to upload file :

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
        HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
        for (Part part : request.getParts()) {
            InputStream is = request.getPart(part.getName()).getInputStream();
            int i = is.available();
            byte[] b = new byte[i];
            is.read(b);
            String fileName = getFileName(part);
            if(session.getAttribute("accesscardDatafileNname")!=null)
                session.setAttribute("accesscardDatafileNname", fileName);
            String uploadDir = getServletContext().getRealPath("/accesscarddata/");
            FileOutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(uploadDir + "/"+ fileName);
            os.write(b);
            is.close();
        }
    }

this is how i call the method : doGet(request, response);

This is how I tried to read the file :

@SuppressWarnings({ "rawtypes", "unchecked" })
    protected void readFile(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
        String fileName = "", employeeAttendanceFilePath = "";
        String _uploadDir = getServletContext().getRealPath("/accesscarddata/");
        HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
        if (session.getAttribute("accesscardDatafileNname") != null)
            fileName = (String) session.getAttribute("accesscardDatafileNname");

        employeeAttendanceFilePath = _uploadDir + "/" + fileName;
        List sheetData = new ArrayList();
        FileInputStream fis = null;
        try {
            fis = new FileInputStream(employeeAttendanceFilePath);
            HSSFWorkbook workbook = new HSSFWorkbook(fis);
            HSSFSheet sheet = workbook.getSheetAt(0);// gets the first sheet on workbook
            Iterator rows = sheet.rowIterator();
            while (rows.hasNext()) {
                HSSFRow row = (HSSFRow) rows.next();
                Iterator cells = row.cellIterator();
                // count=count+1;
                List data = new ArrayList();
                while (cells.hasNext()) {
                    HSSFCell cell = (HSSFCell) cells.next();
                    data.add(cell);
                }
                sheetData.add(data);
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            if (fis != null) {
                fis.close();
            }
        }
        session.setAttribute("sheetData", sheetData);

    }

and the following is the stack trace :

It is the problem of access permission I suppose but don’t know whether the same or some other problem.

Kindly provide me necessary inputs to solve this issue.

Thanks and regards.

Answer 1

You are reading the folder accesscarddata instead of accesscardDatafileNname

if(session.getAttribute("accesscardDatafileNname")!=null)
            session.setAttribute("accesscardDatafileNname", fileName);

This will never set the attribute with the filename.
