Submit form failed without selecting a file in Spring

I want my form can submit a picture with other common fields, but I find if I select a picture in the form, the submission will be successful, but if I don't select a picture, the submission will throw 400 error:

Type Status Report

Message Required request part 'profilePicture' is not present

Description The server cannot or will not process the request due to something that is perceived to be a client error (e.g., malformed request syntax, invalid request message framing, or deceptive request routing).


Apache Tomcat/8.5.23

see my jsp code: 

<%@ taglib prefix="sf" uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags/form"  %>
<sf:form method="POST" modelAttribute="spitter" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<sf:errors path="*" cssClass="error" element="div"></sf:errors><br/>
<sf:label path="id" cssErrorClass="error">User ID:</sf:label> <sf:input  path="id" cssErrorClass="error" /><sf:errors path="id" />   <br />
<sf:label path="firstName" cssErrorClass="error">First Name: </sf:label><sf:input  path="firstName" cssErrorClass="error"/><sf:errors path="firstName" cssClass="error" />  <br/>
<sf:label path="lastName" cssErrorClass="error">Last Name: </sf:label><sf:input  path="lastName" cssErrorClass="error"/><sf:errors path="lastName" cssClass="error"/> <br/>
<sf:label path="password" cssErrorClass="error">Password: </sf:label><sf:password  path="password" cssErrorClass="error"/><sf:errors path="password" cssClass="error"/> <br/>
<br />
<label>Profile Picture</label>
<input type="file" name="profilePicture" 
       accept="image/jpeg,image/png,image/gif" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Register" />
</sf:form>

here is my controller method: 

@RequestMapping(value="/register", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String processRegistration(
        @RequestPart("profilePicture") byte[] profilePicture,
        @Valid Spitter spitter, Errors errors)
{
    System.out.println("SpitterController.processRegistration is called first time");
    if (errors.hasErrors())
    {
        System.out.println("find errors");
        return "registerForm";
    }
    System.out.println("SpitterController.processRegistration is called");
    System.out.println(spitter.toString());
    spitterRespository.saveSpitter(spitter);

    return "redirect:/spitter/"+spitter.getId();
}

I have no idea on how to fix this problem and don't know the reason, can someone help me?
