I am using a demo API which receives a file and note as multipart/form-data input and displays the content of the file and the note. Here is a sample HTML which runs the API correctly:
<html>
<body>
<FORM action="http://cgi-lib.berkeley.edu/ex/fup.cgi" method="post">
<P>Choose file: <INPUT type="file" name="upfile">
<p>Note: <INPUT type="text" name="note">
<p><INPUT type="submit" value="Send">
</FORM>
</body>
</html>
Now I'm trying to created a managed API in the WSO2 APIM publisher. Below are the parameters I filled in:
I'm replacing the action of the HTML to go through the API I added:
<FORM action="http://ec2-52-48-93-41.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:8280/test" method="post">
But now when I run the HTML I get the following error from the API:
cgi-lib.pl: Unknown Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8
Seems like the WSO2 gateway forwarded the request as application/x-www-form-urlencoded rather than as mulipart/form-data.
Based on the following discussion multipart form data file upload using WSO2 API manger ? I tried to comment out
<messageFormatter contentType="multipart/form-data"
class="org.apache.axis2.transport.http.MultipartFormDataFormatter"/>
<messageBuilder contentType="multipart/form-data"
class="org.apache.axis2.builder.MultipartFormDataBuilder"/>
And replace them with
<messageFormatter contentType="multipart/form-data"
class="org.wso2.carbon.relay.ExpandingMessageFormatter"/>
<messageBuilder contentType="multipart/form-data"
class="org.wso2.carbon.relay.BinaryRelayBuilder"/>
Then restarted the server, but it did not cause any impact.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Some log messages that I collected. The target API is different, but it is also a multipart/form-data API which dumps whatever it receives.
The incoming request does have content-type multipart/form-data, with content-length of 292

The outgoing request does not have content-type:

Naturally, the incoming response has HTTP 415, unsupported media:
