Error description

• Uploading an application to the Worklight Application Center

  An error occurred during the upload of the updated application
  file.
  
  On the server side, the following error may be logged:
  Exception during resource upload. String index out of range: -1

  the MIME multipart message's boundary in the Content-type
  header.
  
  For example, this header
  multipart/form-data;
  boundary=---------------------------2925426766838
  becomes
  multipart/form-data;
  boundary="---------------------------2925426766838"

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * Uploading an application to the Worklight Application Center *
  * through Multi-Protocol Gateway in DataPower may fail due to  *
  * to the non support by Apache Wink of mutipart HTTP requests  *
  * containing a boundary value enclosed between double quotes   *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  * -                                                            *

Problem conclusion

• The Apache Wink issue was avoided by removing in a servlet
  filter the double quotes around the boundary attribute of the
  HTTP header
