I write simple server-side file uploader code using java spring boot. Uploader works correctly, however firefox console displays very strange messages like this (after each sending chunk of file):

no element found

and some strange exception, listed only in browser and does not affect the execution of the uploader:

This is piese of server code:

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/uploader")
public class Uploader 
{
    @Autowired
    private HttpServletRequest request;

   @RequestMapping("")
   public void writeChunk() throws IOException
    {
        int chunkLength = request.getContentLength();
        byte[] buf =  new byte[chunkLength];// exception throws in this line

            //here some other code
    }
}

This Exception means that the allocate size of buffer is negative, however debug shows correct value of the allocation size ( 1048576 bytes) - chunkLength and other behaviour looks correct. What this mean?

  • What value is that? Log it and show it to us. Commented Feb 18, 2014 at 19:28

  • What if you change writeChunk(HttpServletRequest request) and remove global request var? Commented Feb 18, 2014 at 21:26
  • @mserioli, nothing changes - I tried it Commented Feb 18, 2014 at 21:29

Look at javadoc of HttpServletRequest.getContentLength().

Returns the length, in bytes, of the request body and made available by the input stream, or -1 if the length is not known or is greater than integer's max value.
