Cannot change post request to put request

I wrote a class for my HTTP-Request. My proplem is that although in several lines of this code i added:

httpConn.setRequestMethod("PUT");

My code still performs POST-Request instead of PUT-Request! What do i wrong? Thanks!

public MultipartUtility(String requestURL, String charset)
            throws IOException {
        this.charset = charset;

        // creates a unique boundary based on time stamp
        boundary = "===" + System.currentTimeMillis() + "===";

        URL url = new URL(requestURL);
        httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        httpConn.setUseCaches(false);
        httpConn.setRequestMethod("PUT");
        httpConn.setDoOutput(true); // indicates POST method
        httpConn.setRequestMethod("PUT");
        httpConn.setDoInput(true);

        httpConn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type",
                "multipart/form-data; boundary=" + boundary);
        httpConn.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "CodeJava Agent");
        httpConn.setRequestProperty("Test", "Bonjour");
        outputStream = httpConn.getOutputStream();
        writer = new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(outputStream, charset),
                true);
    }

httpConn.setUseCaches(false); can effect this result. I am not sure PUT can provide this feature
