Error reading excel file

[nikita rao]

Hi all,

  I am using HSSF in my web application to read an
excel file uploaded by the user. The application is
struts based and the input stream from the
struts.upload.FormFile object is passed to the
POIFSFileSystem constructor. I am getting the
following error when trying to parse a particular
excel file:

java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 11
        at
org.apache.poi.util.LittleEndian.getNumber(LittleEndian.java(Inlined
Compiled Code))
        at
org.apache.poi.util.LittleEndian.getShort(LittleEndian.java(Compiled
Code))
        at
org.apache.poi.hssf.record.MulRKRecord.fillFields(MulRKRecord.java:153)
        at
org.apache.poi.hssf.record.Record.fillFields(Record.java:90)
        at
org.apache.poi.hssf.record.Record.<init>(Record.java:55)
        at
org.apache.poi.hssf.record.MulRKRecord.<init>(MulRKRecord.java:65)


However a stand alone test class using HSSF parses the
same file without any problem. I am using POI ver 2.5
.

I dont know where to start debugging :-(

Has anyone encountered similar problems, please let me
know.

Thanks in advance,

nikita.

To start debugging, save the file to disk from struts, and then use POI
on it.. it will give you an idea of where to look.

Hi,

  I saved the file to disk from struts and when i try
to open the excel file, i get a message "Damage to the
file was so extensive that repairs were not possible.
Excel attempted to recover your formulas and values,
but some data may have been lost or corrupted."

I guess the file is getting corrupted during upload.
Any reason for this,

Thanks Avik for ur prompt response,


Regards
nikita.
