I am working on a MVC Portlet and the document i am saving is not going to db

Here is my Action Class, where I have to save any document to database but its not working and getting error in console that NoSuchMethodException (javax.portlet.ActionRequest, javax.portlet.ActionResponse)

package com.test.docupload;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;

/**

public class DocumentUploadAction extends MVCPortlet {

    public void addDoc(ResourceRequest resourceRequest, ResourceResponse resourceResponse) throws IOException, PortletException {

        UploadRequest uploadRequest = PortalUtil.getUploadPortletRequest(resourceRequest);
        File docImage = uploadRequest.getFile("doc");
        String title = ParamUtil.getString(uploadRequest, "firstName");
        InputStream fis = new FileInputStream(docImage);
        OutputBlob dataOutputBlob = new OutputBlob(fis, docImage.length());
        try {
            Doc doc = DocLocalServiceUtil.createDoc(CounterLocalServiceUtil.increment());
            doc.setDocName(title);
            doc.setOwner(10199);
            doc.setData(dataOutputBlob);
            doc = DocLocalServiceUtil.addDoc(doc);
            if (doc != null) {
                SessionMessages.add(resourceRequest.getPortletSession(), "document-added-success");
                System.out.println("document-added-success");

            } else {
                SessionErrors.add(resourceRequest.getPortletSession(), "document-added-failed");
                System.out.println("document-added-failed::");
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Here is my jsp

<%@page import="com.liferay.portal.kernel.servlet.SessionMessages"%>
<%@ include file="init.jsp" %>

<c:if test='<%=SessionMessages.contains(renderRequest.getPortletSession(),"document-added-success")%>'>
    <liferay-ui:success key="document-added-success" message="Document has been added successfully." />
</c:if>

<c:if test='<%=SessionMessages.contains(renderRequest.getPortletSession(),"document-added-failed")%>'>
    <liferay-ui:error key="document-added-failed" message="Document Uploaded failed." />
</c:if>

<portlet:actionURL  var="addDocActionURL" name="addDoc"></portlet:actionURL>
<aui:form action="<%= addDocActionURL %>" method="post" name="fm" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <aui:input name="title" value="" label="Doc Title"/>
    <aui:input  name="Doc" value="" type="file" label="Select Doc"/>
    <aui:button-row>
        <aui:button type="submit" />
    </aui:button-row>
</aui:form>

I have changed the ActionRequest to ResourceRequest but still its not working.

Solution

There are certain mistakes in your code:

You forgot to include tag reference for aui in your JSP.
Attribute name for file type input was name="Doc", and you were getting parameter value in your action as

File docImage = uploadRequest.getFile("doc");

It should be consistent, either "Doc" / "doc" in both view and action.

You created URL using <portlet:actionURL> tag but were linking it to action type:

public void addDoc(ResourceRequest resourceRequest, ResourceResponse resourceResponse) throws IOException, PortletException {

which is valid for the URL created using <portlet:resourceURL> tag. For actionURL your action method should be:

public void addDoc(ActionRequest actionRequest, ActionResponse actionResponse) throws IOException, PortletException {

Replace all resourceRequest with actionRequest
UploadRequest should be UploadPortletRequest
Link your action class <portlet-class> to JSP in portlet.xml as,

com.test.docupload.DocumentUploadAction

So, following is the updated code:

Portlet.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<portlet-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/portlet/portlet-app_2_0.xsd" 
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
