Java upload file ftp server

I am trying to make a function in Java :

public static void upload_files(String us, String pw, String ip, String f){
 try
 {
    FTPClient client = new FTPClient();
    client.connect(ip);
    client.login(us,pw);
    client.upload(f);
 } catch(Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
 }
}

I added apache libraries, but sadly I got an error on "upload" line I suppose I do not use correctly the method upload, but I don't know how to.

When I compile it with Netbeans, it is noticing me that there is an error line "client.upload(f);"

The error given in output is "java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - Erroneous sym type: org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient.upload"

Thank you all in advance. nb : "f" is the direct path to my file

EDIT :

The problem is "quite" solved since now I upload some files on my ftp server BUT sadly they are all empty, as noticed on below.

The Apache FTPClient does not have an upload method.

What it does have, is a method called storeFile .

It takes as it's parameters the name the file should have on the server, and an InputStream. The InputStream reads from your local file, so you need:

 InputStream is = new FileInputStream( f );
 client.storeFile( some_name, is );
