Hi,
When trying to download an excel file from my application web page, I am getting the above error.
I am using Tomcat 6.0.16, richfaces-3.2.0.SR1, jsf 1.2 RI, and apache poi-3.0.2 to generate the xls files.
My code is as follows:
public void downloadReport()
{
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse) context.getExternalContext().getResponse();
int read = 0;
byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + fileName +"\"");
FileInputStream fis = null;
OutputStream os = null;
HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) context.getExternalContext().getRequest();
try
{
fis = new FileInputStream(new File(downloadPath + fileName));
os = response.getOutputStream();
while((read = fis.read(bytes)) != -1)
{
os.write(bytes, 0, read);
}
os.flush();
os.close();
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}While searching for an answer to this problem, I have found that may people have encountered the same issue but there has been no solution up to now. Is this a bug inherent in richfaces?
Please help me!
Thanks.
