Fileupload: content-type of mulitpart not in request?

[Tim]

Hello,

I'm trying to test a pdf-upload and when I compare the request from a
browser with the request from RestAssured, there seems to be a
difference which causes the test to fail (because the server can not
read the pdf).

Test code:
----------------
File f = new File(WORK_DIR + PDF_TEMPLATE);
Response response = given().
header("Accept", "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/
xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8").
header("Accept-Charset", "ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7").
formParam("naam", naam).
formParam("tags", tags).
multiPart("pdf", f, "application/pdf").
when().post(BASE_URL + "rest/template/");

The RestAssured Request:
---------------------------------------
--XlMPMT1ptKPwSohV1ALhMDbyFCM6lBE-qSGFA
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="pdf";
filename="template_fietspadinspecties.pdf"

%PDF-1.7
%����
...

The corresponding browser request:
---------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------326212769225293
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="pdf";
filename="template_fietspadinspecties.pdf"
Content-Type: application/pdf

%PDF-1.7
%����
...

---> As you can see, the browser also sends "Content-Type: application/
pdf", RestAssured does not, although I specified it in
multiPart("pdf", f, "application/pdf").



Doest anyone knows how to fix this?


Thx,

Hi, 

I cannot seem to reproduce this. When I send a file like this:

given().

        multiPart("file", new File("/home/johan/devtools/java/projects/some_big.rar"), "application/pdf").

expect().

       statusCode(200).

when().

        post("/multipart/file");

and debug on the Server (using Scalatra + FileUpload support) it says that it finds the content type to be application/pdf.

Hello,

Is it possible you add a formparam to your test and post the request (or a part of it)?

I get the same result (i.e. the content type is found on the server) when I do like this:

given().

        header("Accept", "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xmll;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8").

        header("Accept-Charset", "ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7").

        formParam("param1", "value1").

        formParam("param2", "value2").

        multiPart("file", new File("/home/johan/devtools/java/projects/some_big.rar"), "application/pdf").

expect().

        statusCode(200).

when().

        post("/multipart/file");

Strange that it doesn't work for you..
