Cordova Filetransfer always gives error 3 in simulator

[Jonas]

When I use the Filetransfer upload function from within the ios simulator I always get an "error 3" file transfer error. Would be cool to be able to try use that function in the simulator aswell.

My code works fine when run on phone.

        var options = new FileUploadOptions();
        options.fileKey = "file";
        options.fileName = fileURI.substr(fileURI.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
        options.mimeType = "image/jpeg";
        options.params = {}; // if we need to send parameters to the server request
        options.headers = {
            Connection: "close"
        };
        options.chunkedMode = false;

        var ft = new FileTransfer();

        ft.upload(fileURI, encodeURI(fileUrl), successFn, failFn, options);

According to this http://www.telerik.com/forums/access-local-storage#iv6zGVoRBEaOf4aBgih94g cordova plugins does not work in the simulator. Ok, good to know, but is this something that will be included in a (not so far) future?

Hello Jonas,

Thank you for reporting this issue. Your Telerik points has been updated.

In our last release we have added support for the Apache Cordova FileTransfer core plugin in the device simulator but you have came across a bug in the functionality. The bug is logged and will be addressed for future releases.

The problem is in setting http headers. In order to have your sample working in the simulator, remove the "Connection: close", when declaring the headers:

options.headers = {};

Are there any news about adding support for the headers in options?

Hi Odin,

This issue is already addressed and you shouldn't have any issues adding headers in a FileTransfer upload request. You can check our sample app utilizing this functionality.

Hello Nermeen,

Error code 3 is a connection error originating from the FileTransfer plugin. That being said, I was unable to recreate the behavior that you experienced. I would ask you to provide us with a sample application that reproduces the problem, so we could investigate this issue further.
