How to config "CommonsMultipartResolver" in spring4 without xml to upload file

Question

I use xml config spring4 is work well.like this：

<bean id="multipartResolver"
    class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver"
    p:defaultEncoding="utf-8" >
    <!-- one of the properties available; the maximum file size in bytes -->  
    <!-- <property name="maxUploadSize" value="40000000" /> -->  
</bean>

when I config spring4 without xml.like this:

@Configuration
@ComponentScan({ "common.user", "service" })
@EnableWebMvc
public class SpringMVCConfig {

@Bean
public ViewResolver createInternalResourceViewResolver() {
    InternalResourceViewResolver viewResolver = new InternalResourceViewResolver();
    viewResolver.setViewClass(JstlView.class);
    viewResolver.setContentType("text/html");
    viewResolver.setPrefix("/view/");
    //viewResolver.setSuffix(".jsp");
    return viewResolver;
}

@Bean
public DefaultServletHttpRequestHandler createDefaultServletHttpRequestHandler() {
    return new DefaultServletHttpRequestHandler();
}


@Bean
public CommonsMultipartResolver createMultipartResolver() {
    CommonsMultipartResolver resolver=new CommonsMultipartResolver();
    resolver.setDefaultEncoding("utf-8");
    return resolver;
}

}

It throws an exception:

Solution

From MultipartResolver Javadoc : To define an implementation, create a bean with the id "multipartResolver" in a DispatcherServlet's application context.

In your xml configuration, the bean has the correct id of multipartResolver, but not in your current java configuration. You should write :

@Bean
public CommonsMultipartResolver multipartResolver() {
    CommonsMultipartResolver resolver=new CommonsMultipartResolver();
    resolver.setDefaultEncoding("utf-8");
    return resolver;
}

or

@Bean(name = "multipartResolver")
public CommonsMultipartResolver createMultipartResolver() {
    CommonsMultipartResolver resolver=new CommonsMultipartResolver();
    resolver.setDefaultEncoding("utf-8");
    return resolver;
}

Seriously ! I lost 2 hours for that ! Why Spring does not take the only bean which is of type CommonsMultipartResolver. And I don't talk about the error message that was saying that my @RequestParam was not present whereas I had my input file with the correct name. Honnestly, Spring could do better there. At least, a meaningful error message. Thank you Serge Ballesta anyway.

I've done this, yet I keep getting errors about ths content type being not supported. Any idea why this is not working?
