Re: When activeReverseAjaxEnabled is true, File upload progress call not working

Hi, XMaNIaC and all,

I am now using the DWR FileTransfer with the help of IWebMvc example to upload files, but unfortunately, the problem is the same, when I set activeReverseAjaxEnabled to true in web.xml, the getStatus() call will be called after all the bytes of the file are transferred, so the progress bar will not show the progress of the uploading process and only show 100% in the end of the transferring process, and the file is transferred successfully since I can see the file in the folder I configured.

also one more problem is that the file transfer will failed when the file is too big like over 16MB.

The strange thing is that If I switch activeReverseAjaxEnabled to false, then the progress bar can show the progress smoothly. I check my log file, it shows getStatus() calls between the calls to update(long newBytesRead, long newContentLength, int items) of SessionProgressListener (I added logging messages in this method), but with activeReverseAjaxEnabled set to true, the log file shows the getStatus() call is always in the end of the file transferring and the all update() calls are already done with all bytes read.

I think in the IWebMvc example, the problem exists as well, it is just a small image file uploading finishes very fast, it is not easy to notice, but with a bigger file, it should show the progress on the progress bar.

Here is the code block:
 uploadFile : function(record)
  {
 
      var  uploadFinished = function(status){
                        var data = {
                      record: record,
                      response: status
                    }
                    if (status.success) {
                      this.fsa.postEvent('file-upload-success', data);
                    }
                    else {
                      this.fsa.postEvent('file-upload-error', data);
                    }
      }
      UploadMonitor.upload(this.inputUploadFile, uploadFinished.createDelegate(this));
       window.setTimeout("checkStatus()", 500);

  }

function checkStatus() {
    UploadMonitor.getStatus(updateProgress);
}

function updateProgress(data) {
        if(data){
                var percentage = (100 * data.bytesRead / data.contentLength)|0;//can use parseInt(b/c)
                var progressbar = Ext.getCmp('uploadprogressid');
                progressbar.updateProgress(i,'Upload in progress: ' + percentage + '%');
                if (percentage < 100)
                window.setTimeout(checkStatus, 100);
       }else window.setTimeout(checkStatus, 100);
 
}

Thans very much and please help me solve the problem.
By the way, I tested on DWR3.0M1, DWR2.0.3, 2.0.4, DWR3.0build 103. they all have this problem. I am using Tomcat 6.0.16. and tried both JDK1.5 and JDK1.6.

Hi

I would just use DWR FileTransfer and the progress bars it provides. Take a
look at IWebMvc if you need some help.
