java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.commons.fileupload.servlet.ServletFileUpload.parseRequest

Question

I am handling file uploads by a multipart filter as described here . I created a WAR file and deployed on Weblogic 10.3.3 server and got error:

<Dec 8, 2011 5:37:07 PM IST> <Error> <HTTP> <BEA-101020> <[ServletContext@26087289[app:playground module:playground.war path:/playground spec-version:null]] Servlet failed with Exception

    Truncated. see log file for complete stacktrace

Then I deployed same WAR file on Tomcat 7.0.11 server and it is successfully running. How is this caused and how can I deploy successfully on Weblogic?

Answer 1

Deployment on Weblogic 10.3.3 results in an error:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.commons.fileupload.servlet.ServletFileUpload.parseRequest(Lorg/apache/commons/fileupload/RequestContext;)Ljava/util/List;

Deployment on Tomcat 7.0.11 is successful.

Weblogic already ships with Apache Commons FileUpload libraries. This error indicates that they are of an older version than which you have in /WEB-INF/lib .

You have at least 3 options:

1. Remove the JARs from /WEB-INF/lib .
2. Replace them by exactly the same version as Weblogic is using.
3. Change the Weblogic classloading policy to load classes from application first.

Answer 2

您可以使用以下API将文件上传到JBoss服务器http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/index.html

Answer 3

Check If your Jar Library has duplicate Jar files with Different versions. Delete the old version file.
