Description

When a user uploads a file that is emtpy (0 bytes), the actual file is not copied to the web container's "work" directory. All other information about the file is copied though (e.g. contentType, fileName). Although the file is emtpy file.exist() should still equal "true". I have attached a demo app that demostrates the issue. IMO, an empty file should be treated just like a non-empty file.
