Upload files in Edge

Filip Huysmans

Hello everyone,

I'm using Jdeveloper/ADF 12.2.1.4.

I'm showing the user a popup which asks for a file and upload the file.

<af:showPopupBehavior popupId="p2" align="endAfter"/>

  <af:popup id="p1" contentDelivery="lazyUncached">
   <af:dialog id="d1"
         title="#{mcMainViewControllerResourceBundle.UPLOAD_FILE_TITLE}"
         partialTriggers="t2"
         dialogListener="#{pageFlowScope.downloadBean.checkinEnvelop}">
    <af:panelFormLayout id="pfl1">
     <af:inputFile label="#{mcMainViewControllerResourceBundle.UPLOAD_FILE}"
            id="if1" value="#{pageFlowScope.downloadBean.file}"
            autoSubmit="false"/>

After which a navigation is performed to refresh the page (all done in calling the checkinEnvelop method).

ADFUtils.performTaskFlowNavigation("refreshList");

This all works fine in Chrome 105.0.5195.127 and Firefox 87.0 (64-bit), but not in Edge 91.0.864.59 (Official build) (64-bit).

In Edge the upload is performed correctly, as well as all db actions, but the screen hangs on the popup and won't close. Afterwards the entire application is not responding any more, the user most create a new session to get everything back operational.

Any idea what did could cause?

Thx in advance.

Stuff like this is always hard to fix. Have you checked the browser's console for any errors?

You can try to variate the use case e.g., upload the file directly before closing the dialog.

P.S. the current Edge version is 105.x like Chrome. Have you tried using the current version?

Filip Huysmans

Hi Timo,

the browser console does not show any warnings, nor errors. Also the server logging does not show anything strange.

My colleague has version 105 and he has also this problem.

I going to try to play with this upload file. I do not think that the actual uploading is the problem, since this activity works fine in the background.

Hi all,

removing the inputFile tag, resolves the issue.

Except for the fact I can not upload a file :-), which is off course the purpose.

Any idea why this could be?

Thx

I tried to reproduce the problem with a simple use-case, without success.

Timo Hahn

As I said, you should try to alter the way the upload is handled in your app.

My guess is that edge handle the upload differently and this is causing the problem.

What is the OS? Is it supported according to

https://www.oracle.com/technologies/developer-tools/jdeveloper/12214certification.html

@dvohra21 yes the OS is supported. To make it clear, the adf application stops working after the upload, not the browser itself. When clicking on links or tabs, you see the running icon turning, but nothing happens in Edge.

@Timo Hahn what do you mean by altering the way the upload is handled in your app? Should I add another button to separate the upload of the file from the closing of the popup?

Thx guys for your help

Timo Hahn

Currently, you do everything when the popup is closed. I would try to do the upload directly and save the data temporarily. This will finish the upload without holding the stream open. You can then wait for the user to close the popup to store the data in the DB. Hopefully, this will work.

Hi @Timo Hahn ,

no success. Even removing all code when clicking on the OK-button, the reaction stays the same: popup does not close and after clicking on the cancel-button (which does close the popup) the application does not respond anymore.

<af:popup id="p1" contentDelivery="lazyUncached">
   <af:dialog id="d1"
         title="#{mcMainViewControllerResourceBundle.UPLOAD_FILE_TITLE}">
    <af:panelFormLayout id="pfl1">
     <af:inputFile label="#{mcMainViewControllerResourceBundle.UPLOAD_FILE}"
            id="if1" value="#{pageFlowScope.downloadBean.file}"
            autoSubmit="false"/>

As long as I have the inputFile component on the popup, everything fails.

Any other ideas I could try?

Thx

Not in ADF but a related post may provide some answer.

: I was able to solve this. I moved the change event to outside of the click event and all seems to be working now. Not sure why this is only an issue in Edge though.

Working:

<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#UploadButton").on("click", function () {
        $("#testUploader").trigger("click");
    });

    $("#testUploader").on("change", function() {
        console.log("change");
    });
</script>
