Having problems using _setFile function

Members
Hello,
I'm new to Sahi. In the last couple of weeks of playing around I have been able to automate everything without any issues with the exception of the file upload function _setFile().
I enable the debug traffic log option in the Sahi properties file and ran my file upload both manually and using _setFile() with the following results...
Manually (works fine):
request body for the upload URL (http s://mydomain.com/aqs/myAccount/saveLogo)
28400655821476
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="test_260x70.png"
Content-Type: image/png
{file content is shown here}
28400655821476--
Now with _setFile (not working)
_setFile request.body...(the file "test.260x70.png" is located on the proxy server drive)
n=file&v=c%3A%5Ctest_260x70.png&action=https%3A%2F%2Fmydomain. com%2Faqs%2Fis%2Fmain%2FmyAccount%2FsaveLogo&t=1272638338686
Request body for the upload URL (http s://mydomain.com/aqs/myAccount/saveLogo)
17035989428703
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename=""
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
17035989428703--
The following message is displayed on the proxy...
url: http s://mydomain.com/aqs/is/main/myAccount/saveLogo
command: FileUpload_appendFiles
Uploading: fileName = c:\test_260x70.png
Any help with this would be appreciated...not sure what to do next.
Thanks,
Eric.

The debug logs show the data before Sahi has appended the file to the request. I think your application is not accepting the image because the mime-type is incorrect.
Open mime-types.mapping file in sahi/config directory and add
.png image/png
at the end, so that the file looks like
...
.jpg image/jpeg
.jpeg image/jpeg
.png image/png
Restart Sahi and check again.
