POSTMAN upload to user home results in zero byte file

[chuyser]

I'm prototyping upload of a document to the user's home directory (User Homes/{username} using Chrome's POSTMAN. The upload returns a SUCCESS status, with the node number for the file, etc., but the resulting file node contains a 0 byte stub. The ticket I'm using is for the user to whose home directory I am trying to upload.

Here's what I'm sending vi POSTMAN

Request URL: http://alfrescoserveriport/alfresco/service/api/upload?alf_ticket=TICKET_ticketnum

And here's what I get back:

Response:

   "nodeRef": "workspace://SpacesStore/new_file_node_number_XXXX",
   "fileName": "somefile.txt",
   "status":
   {
      "code": 200,
      "name": "OK",
      "description": "File uploaded successfully"
   }
}

I checked in the alfresco logs, but didn't see any issues. Any thoughts on what's wrong with my syntax? I will eventually want to do this operation both via a Web script and via CURL.

I am running Alfresco Community Edition, version 4.0.d.

Thank you,
