Multipart Form File Upload Issues on Replit
File upload fails with 400 Bad Request or files aren't received. Multipart form handling has issues.
Multipart form configuration and size limits require proper setup.
Error Messages You Might See
Current request is not a multipart request
File size exceeds maximum allowed size
400 Bad Request
Common Causes
- File size exceeds max upload limit
- Form content-type not multipart/form-data
- @RequestParam name doesn't match form field
- Multipart request not enabled in config
- Memory limit exceeded for large files
How to Fix It
Set spring.servlet.multipart.max-file-size=10MB and max-request-size=10MB in application.yml. Use @RequestParam("fileField") MultipartFile file. Set @RequestMapping(consumes = MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA_VALUE). For large files, stream to disk instead of memory. Check client sends correct content-type header.

I am a technologist and product builder dedicated to creating high-impact solutions at the intersection of AI and specialized markets. Currently, I am focused on PropScan (EstateGuard), an AI-driven SaaS platform tailored for the Japanese real estate industry, and exploring the potential of Archify.
As an INFJ-T, I approach development with a "systems-thinking" mindset—balancing technical precision with a deep understanding of user needs. I particularly enjoy the challenge of architecting Vertical AI SaaS and optimizing Small Language Models (SLMs) to solve specific, real-world business problems. Whether I'm in a CTO-level leadership role or hands-on with the code, I thrive on building tools that turn complex data into actionable value.
