Hi,

Just been looking at integrating formidable with uploadify and have to go and sort the kids out. Here is where I'm at. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a test page that sends a text file at the moment. The request looks like this:

------------KM7ae0cH2ei4gL6ei4GI3KM7cH2KM7 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Filename"

test.txt ------------KM7ae0cH2ei4gL6ei4GI3KM7cH2KM7 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="folder"

/uploads ------------KM7ae0cH2ei4gL6ei4GI3KM7cH2KM7 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Filedata"; filename="test.txt" Content-Type: application/octet-stream

test file contents ------------KM7ae0cH2ei4gL6ei4GI3KM7cH2KM7 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Upload"

Submit Query ------------KM7ae0cH2ei4gL6ei4GI3KM7cH2KM7--

I'm putting it through this code:

var form = new formidable.IncomingForm(),
    files = [],
    fields = [];

form.uploadDir = 'testTemp/';

form
  .on('field', function(field, value) {
    p([field, value]);
    fields.push([field, value]);
  })
  .on('file', function(field, file) {
    p([field, file]);
    files.push([field, file]);
  })
  .on('end', function() {
    util.puts('-> upload done');
    res.writeHead(200, {'content-type': 'text/plain'});
    res.write('received fields:\n\n '+util.inspect(fields));
    res.write('\n\n');
    res.end('received files:\n\n '+util.inspect(files));
  });
try {
    form.parse(req);
} catch (err) {
    util.inspect(err)
}

and getting this error: [ 'Filename', 'test.txt' ] [ 'folder', '/uploads' ]

events.js:12 throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event ^ Error: MultipartParser.end(): stream ended unexpectedly at MultipartParser.end (/home/ed/node/ry-node-73318fa/formidable/multipart_parser.js:311:12) at IncomingMessage.

OK. I put in an error handler:

  .on('error', function(err) {
    prj.logError('failure: ' + util.inspect(err))
    res.writeHead(200, {'content-type': 'text/plain'});
    res.end('error:\n\n'+util.inspect(err));
  })

and it seems to be uploading the files fine. I have checked with binary files and they don't seem to be getting corrupted. I still get the same error though:

stream ended unexpectedly

I have been looking through the ActionScript of the uploader and it doesn't mean a great deal to me. I looks like it is using an inbuilt flash to actually do the upload though (it seems to pick up the AS event):

file.addEventListener(DataEvent.UPLOAD_COMPLETE_DATA, fileCompleteHandler);

Any ideas? If this is the way flex works should I just ignore it?

The multipart_parser state when the error is thrown is "PART_DATA" by the way.

This is a bug in the multipart parser which has been reported before as #6. Since I don't use any flash uploaders I haven't gotten around to fix it yet, but I'll look into it.

Cool. I will close this one out then.

Thanks.
