From your code I haven't seen any destination path or noderef parameter.

seems like you are trying to upload content less object. I dont see the correct filedata option.

Please look at this documentation, you must pass all required params in order to get succesful response.

Here is the detailed description for upload api:

POST /alfresco/service/api/upload

HTML form data

filedata, (mandatory) HTML type file
You must specify one of:
- destination (the folder NodeRef where the node will be created)
- updateNodeRef (the NodeRef of an existing node that will be updated)
- siteid and containerid (the Site name and the container in that site where the document will be created)
uploaddirectory - name of the folder (either in the site container or the destination) where the document will be uploaded. This folder must already exist
description - Description for a version update (versionDescription)
contenttype - The content type that this document should be specialised to
majorversion
overwrite
thumbnails

Return content

nodeRef

Return status: STATUS_OK (200)

The web script description document specifies the following options:

Value	Description
`json`	The default response format
`user`	The authentication access
`required`	The transaction level
`any`	The format style

there is no good description for everything. can you give an example?

$jsonData = array(
"filedata"=> "@test.txt",
"siteid"=> "defend",
"containerid"=> "documentLibrary",
"uploaddirectory"=> "./",
"description"=> "test",
"contenttype"=> "text/plain",
"majorversion"=> "1",
"overwrite"=> "1",
"thumbnails"=> ""
);

I have used it with Java language. You can find the code and example here: http://javaworld-abhinav.blogspot.com/2014/09/upload-documents-to-alfresco-using-rest.html

Parameters are highlighted.

Source code example can be found here: https://github.com/abhinavmishra14/AlfrescoJMeterLoadTestPlugin/blob/master/src/com/jmeter/alfresco/utils/HttpUtils.java

You can take reference from that code and prepare the request similary.

Thanks for your help but in php i have errors.

{ "status" : { "code" : 500, "name" : "Internal Error", "description" : "An error inside the HTTP server which prevented it from fulfilling the request." }

i used:

$filename = "test.txt";

//The JSON data.
$jsonData = array(
"filedata"=> $filename,
"siteid"=> "defend",
"containerid"=> "documentLibrary",
"uploaddirectory"=> "uploadfolder",
"description"=> "its a description",
"contenttype"=> mime_content_type($filename),
"majorversion"=> "false",
"overwrite"=> "true"

);

I am not familier with PHP, someone who is famililier with PHP may provide more details, but would it be possible for you to post the full error log. Both from alfresco(alfresco.log) and share (share.log) by sending a request with the code you have.

Re: Internal error 500 on upload file from REST API

ni0ni0s — Tue, 29 Oct 2019 15:42:18 GMT

share.log not showing error.

the requerst return this:
{ "status" : { "code" : 500, "name" : "Internal Error", "description" : "An error inside the HTTP server which prevented it from fulfilling the request." }, "message" : "09290256 Unexpected error occurred during upload of new content.", "exception" : "", "callstack" : [ ], "server" : "Community Early Access v6.0.0 (rbdba1485-b0) schema 10,200", "time" : "Oct 29, 2019 5:39:12 PM" }

and the alfresco.log returns

2019-10-29 17:41:19,060 ERROR [org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.AbstractRuntime] [http-apr-8080-exec-14] Exception from executeScript: 09290257 Unexpected error occurred during upload of new content.

Thanks let me review the log. Additonally can you also try to upload the same file via Any rest client such as postman and see what you get? use the same file and provide the same parameters.

I see the problem, your request is not able to pass the file content with the request. Passing file path in json payload won't work. I am not much familier with PHP so not 100% sure. You can check if the content is being passed properly. When sending the form data from postman, it was able to send the file content.

If you want to use raw json data only then you can use base64 encoded string formation of the file data in the request alternatively.

Can you please share the POSTMAN request?

I tried form data, it is saying BAD Request - "Required parameters are missing". Not sure what I am missing here.

Here is my postman form-data

@ni0ni0s - Please help me out by sharing your postman request.

Looks like you are manually placing the file path as string. It will not work. File has to be attached. This is how we select a file in Postman. Rest of the params could be as is.
