[YouTube-API] Re: Resumable PUT request gets redirect.

Right and normally the resumable works fine but I have some users who upload, then when the last PUT is done the response from the server is a redirect (or at least the call to connection.getResponseCode() throws a HttpRetryException). 

They say this only happens when uploading larger files.

And as I mentioned if they do the straight POST method with the large files it works.

Hello AJ,




 I happen to have some code to do resumable uploads using the Java
client library. I just gave it a try and it worked as expected (i.e.
it sent an initial POST to the /resumable/... URL).




 MediaFileSource mediaFile = new MediaFileSource(new File("/path/to/
file.mov"), "movie/quicktime");
 URL createUploadUrl = new URL("http://uploads.gdata.youtube.com/
resumable/feeds/api/users/default/uploads");

 VideoEntry newEntry = new VideoEntry();
 YouTubeMediaGroup mg = newEntry.getOrCreateMediaGroup();
 mg.setTitle(new MediaTitle());
 mg.getTitle().setPlainTextContent("Test from Java");
 mg.addCategory(new MediaCategory(YouTubeNamespace.CATEGORY_SCHEME,
"Autos"));
 mg.setKeywords(new MediaKeywords());
 mg.getKeywords().addKeyword("cars");
 mg.setDescription(new MediaDescription());
 mg.getDescription().setPlainTextContent("My description");

 ResumableGDataFileUploader.Builder builder = new
ResumableGDataFileUploader.Builder(service,
   createUploadUrl, mediaFile, newEntry);
 Future<ResponseMessage> futureResponse = builder.build().start();
 ResponseMessage response = futureResponse.get();
 VideoEntry videoEntry = new VideoEntry();
 videoEntry.parseAtom(new ExtensionProfile(),
response.getInputStream());
 // Do what you want with the newly created VideoEntry
