Spring - AngularJS - File Upload - org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadException: the request was rejected because no multipart boundary was found

I am facing the below Exception while uploading a file from angular to my Java Spring MVC web application server

<form role="form" name="attachForm" class="form-horizontal" >
        <div class="form-group">
                <input class="col-xs-12" id="uploadFile" type="file" name="uploadFile" file-model ="myFile" ng-disable="closeHidden" required />
            </div>
        </div>
</form>

In my AngularJs

var saveFileURL = "caseapi/saveFile";
var fd = new FormData();
fd.append('file', scope.myFile);
return $http.post(saveFileURL,fd,{
                transformRequest: angular.identity,
                headers: {
                            "Content-Type": undefined
                        }
                });

My Directive

(function() {
define([ 'appModule'], function(app) {
app.directive('fileModel', [ '$parse', function($parse) {
    return {
        restrict : 'A',
        link : function(scope, element, attrs) {
            var model = $parse(attrs.fileModel);
            var modelSetter = model.assign;
            console.log("fileModelDir");
            element.bind('change', function() {

                scope.$apply(function() {
                    modelSetter(scope, element[0].files[0]);
                });
            });
        }
    };
} ]);
});
}).call(this);

Server-side

@RequestMapping(value = "/saveFile", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public void saveFile( MultipartFile fd, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
    logger.info("SAVE FILE fd : " +fd);
    logger.info("File name :" + fd.getName());
    try 
    {
        /** TODO: Implement file handling **/
        logger.info("saveDraft serviceResponse: ");
        handleResponse(response, serviceResponse);

        logger.info("Exitting saveDraft");
    } catch (Exception ex) {
        logger.error("Error while calling service: ",ex);
        response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
    }

}

Below is the Error

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [GVEClientExperience] in context

Late but could help somebody:

Use ngFileUpload, like this:

$scope.uploadFile = function (file, param1, param2)
{
    var params ={'param1': param1, 'param2': param2};

    Upload.upload({
        url: 'http://localhost/uploadFile',
        data: {file:file},
        params: params
    }).then(function (resp) {
        console.log('Success ' + resp.config.data.file.name + 'uploaded. Response: ' + resp.data);
    }, function (resp) {
        console.log('Error status: ' + resp.status);
    }, function (evt) {
        var progressPercentage = parseInt(100.0 * evt.loaded / evt.total);
        console.log('progress: ' + progressPercentage + '% ' + evt.config.data.file.name);
    }).catch (function onError(data){
        console.error("Upload pic exception");
        console.error(JSON.stringify(data));
 });;        
};

You can also put the parameters inside the data variable.

Adding "Content-Type": undefined in the request and data type to consumes = {"multipart/form-data"})

We have managed to deal with such a requirement using simple yet powerful third-party directive angular-upload. Use is pretty straightforward and simple. More details you can find in documentation.

In HTML page:

<div
 class="btn btn-primary btn-upload"
 upload-button
 url="/upload"
 on-success="onSuccess(response)">Upload</div>

In Angular Controller:

$scope.onSuccess = function(response) {
    // Do something
};

In Spring Controller:

@RequestMapping(value = "upload", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public void uploadAccessFile(@RequestParam("file") MultipartFile file) {
    // Do something with file
}

And finally in your Configuration:

@Bean
public CommonsMultipartResolver multipartResolver() {
    CommonsMultipartResolver resolver = new CommonsMultipartResolver();
    resolver.setDefaultEncoding("utf-8");
    return resolver;
}

you need to specify the data type to consume in your controller and add request param with the key of your file

@RequestMapping(value = "/saveFile", method = RequestMethod.POST, consumes = {"multipart/form-data"})
public void saveFile(@RequestParam(name="fd") MultipartFile fd, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {

and no need for contentType:undefined

 return $http.post(saveFileURL,fd,{
            transformRequest: angular.identity,

            });

and add the encrypt type in your form ad daddygames mentioned

 enctype="multipart/form-data">

It seems to be a problem on your request. Try to do this.

return $http.post(saveFileURL,fd,{
            transformRequest: angular.identity,
            headers: {
                        "Content-Type": "multipart/form"
                    }
            });

Here is W3C specification mentioning it

in which one or more different sets of data are combined in a single body, a "multipart" Content-Type field must appear in the entity's header.

https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc1341/7_2_Multipart.html

Add the enctype property to your FORM tag.

<form enctype="multipart/form-data">
