    }
}

when i run this code in tomcat 7 it says this error when uploading the file :

java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp1\wtpwebapps\Fileupload\accesscarddata\C:\Users\anthony.savarimut\Desktop\Map Iterate\SampleData.xls (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)

Please save me form this.

Answer 1

You are running the tomcat in workspace. Please change location to where tomcat installed. I assuming that your are running with eclipse, click on server and set the location.
