SOAPUI - UPLOADING A FILE

Hi Chris,

exactly how are you attaching/referencing the file from within your message? Maybe you can add a screenshot?

I tried several things, including using the attachment functionality of SOAPUI.

From the related WSDL:

Thank you,

Hi Chris,

hmm.. the inlining with "file:..." should encode the file correctly.. are you using the latest version? Can you attach or mail me the WSDL so I can debug?

Hey,

I have version 2.5.1 installed now and I am able to send a .wma file properly as an attachment. The request, however, fail when I tried to add the .wma as an inline file. At any rate, everything works fine if I use the SoapUI attachment functionality.

I'm finally getting back to testing and uploading files...  And my setup is failing.

I have a post request that passes in one file.  I specified the one file in the attachments and have branded it as multipart/form-data because my application is checking for that...

I get my one parameter and I get my file in the servlet, but my debug shows...
item = name=null, StoreLocation=C:\DOCUME~1\AEHREN~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\upload_233f43a7_11ff6bd4b30__7ffd_00000005.tmp, size=16550bytes, isFormField=true, FieldName=baseball.jpg

First off, why is the name null?
Secondly, why is FormField true?  When using a JSP, formField shows as false?

Both of these values are giving me headaches.  Any thoughts?

I tried to use the method of attaching a file to a HTTP request; it all looks nice there is just one problem:
The HTTP handler receiving the file written in .NET expects the attachment in the HttpContext.Request.Files collection.
Using fiddler I found out that the content disposition has to include the file name, otherwise it does not show in the collection. Comparing the two raw requests it simply lacks the additional information to work as intended. The desired missing part of the disposition is marked in red.

Is there any way to persuade SoapUI to add missing part in the content disposition?

Hi!

just so I get this right.. exactly how are you attaching/transferring the file?

Hi,
Is this function still available in v4.5.1? It is working on v4.0 Beta2 I have on another machine, with exact same file, but with v.4.5.1, it almost appears that the request is not sent to the server. (Our service returns an error code if Content-Type header is missing, after authenticating the request, and I don't even get that... )

Hi,
I use SoapUI 4.0.1
If I add a soap attachment, I get something like that as raw request:
Content-Disposition: attachment; name="MyFile.pdf"; filename="MyFile.pdf"

If I look through rfc, I can't find the parameter name. Only filename exists. So I think, the request is not rfc conform.
