Struts 2/ Foundation 5 - ModelDriven class and File upload
I have tried to use Struts 2 for uploading file and form data and sending an email to the admin.
There are 2 problems I am now facing:
- If I do not choose an attachment for file upload. I receive a NullPointerException

- I am using AWS to host the form. I am not sure where the uploaded file is saved on AWS.
On my local machine it is saved under C:\workspace.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\wtpwebapps\formExample\WEB-INF
Is there any way I can locate the file on AWS or save the file from my action class to a pre-defined location?
Thanks!
