I have to upload a file on a local website, I am using Spring, Hibernate, but I do not use Maven.

I know I have a little problem with my architecture but it works before I try to upload my file.

My architecture is like :

- src :
  - Controller : With my controller 
  - Dao : With my DAO
  - Model : With my Model
  - Hibernate : With my Hibernate
  - applicationContext.xml : With beans for dao
...
- WebContent :
  - Views : With my jsp
  - WEB-INF : 
     - dispatchers-servlet.xml : With beans for controller and views
     - web.xml : with the servlet and servlet mapping

I tried to add :

<!-- Configure the multipart resolver -->
<bean id="multipartResolver" class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
<!-- one of the properties available; the maximum file size in bytes -->
<property name="maxUploadSize" value="100000"/>
</bean>

I added this in dispatchers-servlet.xml. But when I started my server, I had this problem :

    Have you added commons-fileupload-1.3.1.jar to WEB-INF/lib ? Commented Jan 6, 2016 at 11:30
  • I was thinking I only have to add this file to my buildpath, and I have forgot to refresh my project... Thanks you a lot ! :) If I have an other problem, can I post it here or I have to ask a new question ? Commented Jan 6, 2016 at 12:51
  • It is better to create a new question unless referring to the same problem. Commented Jan 6, 2016 at 14:15

Answer: The Apache Commons FileUpload jar must be on the classpath at runtime. If you are using Gradle or Maven you can add it as a dependency in your project's build.gradle or maven pom file.

Explanation: Apache Commons FileUpload is an optional dependency of Spring Web. Neither Maven nor Gradle will automatically resolve/download optional dependencies. Optional dependencies have to be manually added to your project's list of dependencies when your project uses a feature that requires them.

Since my project uses the CommonsMultipartResolver class from Spring Web, we in fact do need Apache Commons FileUpload at runtime. After adding the following to the dependencies block in my build.gradle file everything worked perfectly:

runtime 'commons-fileupload:commons-fileupload:1.3.1'

It would be nice if there were some way to determine the full set of optional dependencies that a project requires at runtime. The only solution I can think of is comprehensive unit test coverage, but that may not be feasible for many projects.

If you include in lib folder and problem still persists, Try to keep

commons-fileupload-1.3.1.jar in tomcat/lib.
