Content-Type not allowed: fileUpload in Struts 2

I am new to Struts 2 and trying to do use fileUpload interceptor. I am attaching all my code layers

Action Class (FileUploadAction):

package com.caveofprogramming.actions;
import java.io.File;

import org.apache.struts2.convention.annotation.Action;
import org.apache.struts2.convention.annotation.Result;

public class FileUploadAction extends ActionSupport{
 
    private File fileUpload;
    private String fileUploadContentType;
    private String fileUploadFileName;
 
    public String getFileUploadContentType() {
        return fileUploadContentType;
    }
 
    public void setFileUploadContentType(String fileUploadContentType) {
        this.fileUploadContentType = fileUploadContentType;
    }
 
    public String getFileUploadFileName() {
        return fileUploadFileName;
    }
 
    public void setFileUploadFileName(String fileUploadFileName) {
        this.fileUploadFileName = fileUploadFileName;
    }
 
    public File getFileUpload() {
        return fileUpload;
    }
 
    public void setFileUpload(File fileUpload) {
        this.fileUpload = fileUpload;
    }
 
    @Action( value = "/fileUpload",
            results={@Result(name="success",location="/success.jsp"),
             @Result(name="error",location="/error.jsp"),
             @Result(name="input",location="/error.jsp")
    },
           interceptorRefs={
            @InterceptorRef(
                    params={"allowedTypes","image/jpeg,image/jpg,application/zip",
                            "maximumSize","1024000"}, 
                            value="fileUpload"
                        ),
            @InterceptorRef("defaultStack"),
            @InterceptorRef("validation")
   }
    )

I am not understanding why I am getting this error

"Content-Type not allowed: fileUpload "photography-104a.jpg" "upload_37fbf440_169b_4687_af65_93c8c967256c_00000000.tmp" image/pjpeg"

"Content-Type not allowed: fileUpload "photography-104a.jpg" "upload_37fbf440_169b_4687_af65_93c8c967256c_00000000.tmp" image/pjpeg"​

Although my uploading file format is .jpg.

Answer

You are getting this error probably because you don’t allow files with content type image/pjpeg. Use parameter of fileUpload interceptor to define allowed MIME types

<interceptor-ref name="fileUpload">
    <param name="allowedTypes">image/jpeg,image/pjpeg</param>
</interceptor-ref>

JavaScript
 
<interceptor-ref name="fileUpload">    <param name="allowedTypes">image/jpeg,image/pjpeg</param></interceptor-ref>  ​
