Error message when intall app bulk load

Hi, please i would like to install bulk load, here is the error that i get:

Here is the error in red above:

Failed to install app: Processing of multipart/form-data request failed. /home/dhis/tomcat-dhis/work/Catalina/localhost/ROOT/upload_bdb8f169_44a3_49ed_ae9a_76a80be552b3_00000000.tmp

Any idea on how to solve it please @eyeseetea EyeSeeTea, @Stephan_Mestach @Gassim
Thank you

Looks like here are the server versions supported by the bulk upload app:

Is your server version within this range?

Also @eyeseetea can talk more to this.

Hi,

Thanks @Quoda, @Ornella I’ve shared it with my colleagues to see if they can help. Will let you know ASAP. Thanks!

@Quoda you may me right, i use Version 2.40.3

Hi,

Just tested in dhis2 play instance v40.3 and it installed fine without any error.

You can download latest release from here Releases · EyeSeeTea/Bulk-Load · GitHub

Can you install other apps in your instance? Can you also check sharing settings in the system for that folder if Tomcat user does have write access to it.

@Daler I try to install another app, still giving me the same error. Please can you show where to find the sharing setting in the system?

By looking at the error message seems like you got installed dhis2 in *.unix environment.

Have a look at this article and see if you followed along. You should have dhis2 user in your instance and that particular user should have access to the folders, read/write:

it points more either

  • a corrupted zip
  • to a access right problem : the file is uploaded to /home/dhis/tomcat-dhis/work/Catalina/localhost/ROOT/
  • or a disk full

why don’t you have it installed through the “App hub” directly instead of installing it manually ?

Just a note: As Clement noted above, the Bulk Load app is indicated as having a maximum DHIS2 server version of v38. When using a v40 instance, it should not be available from the app hub.

I solved it, thank you guys. The problem was the permission to the path /home/dhis/tomcat-dhis/work/Catalina/localhost/ROOT/.
