rich:fileUpload will not upload file

[jayaganesh13]

hi,
i am using rich:fileUpload for loading file and i am using Tamcat server.
ISSUE:
    While uploading file i am using fileUploadListener to parse that file.After execution of this listener i need to render that file name on my page seperatly.But this is not happen when uploading file first time after tamcat started..If i try again the same file it will upload successfully.Suppose the file big one it will take two to three times to upload.
   For this whether i need to do anything web.xml regarding file size and all..
    Please can any one help me.

Richfaces components usually work very well. I have been following Exadel's products for nearly 4 years now and I must say Max Katz and his team are doing a wonderful job.

Instead me posting code here, you can access the rich:fileUpload example on SVN repository as an anonymous user:
http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/richfaces

The example explains very well how you can apply the file-size restrictions in web.xml (deployment descriptor). Also you can get name of file being uploaded using fileUpload API's and much more.
Regarding the time needed to upload a file to server; this is usually dependent on network speed and of course size of file being uploaded.

What version of Richfaces are you using?

Wrong forum. And not just the wrong forum - the richfaces forums are on a different site altogether.

then please kindly refer jayaganesh to that forum, provide a link Nicklas.

Anyways jayaganesh, this version of richfaces (3.3) is a fairly stable release. Try to mimic the example code provided in the SVN repository I sent earlier. If that still doesn't work, then just use the seam file-upload component s:fileUpload. I have been using this comp on a regular basis and works without a hitch. There are a few web.xml configs you have to apply. More at:

Nicklas should not have to.

There is this little know search engine called google

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=richfaces+users+forum&btnG=Search

which leads you to the forum

Sometimes you just don't know where to start or where the issue is. Jayaganesh did the right thing to ask.
