This is a working example.
Most likely, it comes down to the fact that the server is a bit simple and takes the filename literally. And since you are not using filepath.Base
on your uploadFileName
, it might have path elements on it. Simply use it on your filename for testing purposes.
The resets might be caused by the timeouts.
