Hey I have to create resume file upload option.
I am using ,

Here file gets uploaded in /tomcat/temp directory.

I have following problems that I am facing:

1)All files are not supported - I tried .txt not supported,though pdf, doc, xml is supported.
2)When I redeploy portlet on server my files disapper from temp.
3)How can I specify path to upload my files other than default temp folder, i.e I want to store in document & media.
4)My file name changes when stored in temp folder.

Hi Lucky,

1)First of all we need to create directory for adding documents and for that we can use following API.

DLServiceUtil.addDirectory(companyId, repositoryId, dirName);
//Where repositoryId is CompanyConstants.SYSTEM;

2)Now for adding file in that directory we can use :
DLServiceUtil.addFile(
companyId, portletId, groupId,repositoryId,
dirName + StringPool.SLASH + fileName, 0, StringPool.BLANK,
new Date(), new String[0], new String[0], bytes);

These steps will store file under "data" folder in tomcat.

Hi,

regarding your questions:

1) Use the following property to define which file types are allowed (the setting in the control panel overrides the one in portal-ext.properties):

2+3+4) As the folder name "temp" states it's only for temporary files. If you need the file to be persisted take a look at the DLFileEntryLocalServiceUtil methods and the document library portlet in general.
