For file upload I am trying to inject and use a Validator in my Spring Controller like this:

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api")
public class FileController{

    @Autowired
    private MessageSource messageSource;

    @Autowired
    FileValidator validator;

    @InitBinder("file")
    public void initBinderFile(WebDataBinder binder) {
        binder.setValidator(validator);
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/fileUpload2", method = RequestMethod.POST, produces = {"text/plain"})
    @PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('ADMINISTRATOR')")
    public String singleFileUpload2(@Valid @ModelAttribute("file") File file, BindingResult result) throws IOException {
        if (result.hasErrors()) {
            String errorString = "";
            for (ObjectError error : result.getAllErrors()) {
                 errorString = errorString.concat(messageSource.getMessage(error.getCode(), new String[]{}, Locale.ENGLISH)+"\n");
            }
            return errorString;
        } else {
            MultipartFile multipartFile = file.getFile();

            String fileName = multipartFile.getOriginalFilename();
            System.out.println("Fetching file: "+fileName);

            return messageSource.getMessage("upload.file.success", new String[]{}, Locale.ENGLISH);
        }
    }

}

Here is my Validator:

@Component
public class FileValidator implements Validator {

    @Override
    public boolean supports(Class<?> clazz) {
        return File.class.isAssignableFrom(clazz);
    }

    @Override
    public void validate(Object obj, Errors errors) {
        File file = (File) obj;

        if (file.getFile().getSize() == 0) {
            errors.rejectValue("file", "missing.file");
        } else try {
            if (file.getFile().getBytes().length > 2097152l) {
                errors.rejectValue("file", "upload.file.error.size");
            }
            if(!file.getFile().getContentType().equalsIgnoreCase("text/html")){
                 errors.rejectValue("file", "incorrect.file.type");
            }
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            errors.rejectValue("file", "upload.file.error");
        } 
    }
}

Here is the File object that I am trying to validate:

public class File {

    private String name;
    private MultipartFile file;

    public File() {
    }

    public File(MultipartFile file) {
        this.file = file;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public MultipartFile getFile() {
        return file;
    }

    public void setFile(MultipartFile file) {
        this.file = file;
    }

}

And here is the error that I get when I try to start my application:

    org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'fileController': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: com.enterprise.springapp.web.validators.FileValidator com.eurodyn.springapp.web.FileController.validator; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Can not set com.enterprise.springapp.web.validators.FileValidator field com.enterprise.springapp.web.FileController.validator to com.sun.proxy.$Proxy101

Can not set 'FileValidator' field 'FileController.validator' to 'com.sun.proxy.$Proxy101'

FileValidator is a class, not an interface.

com.sun.proxy.$Proxy101 is an interface proxy, not a class proxy.

There are two main ways to solve this. Either inject the validator via an interface, e.g:

@Autowired @Qualifier("fileValidator")
private Validator fileValidator;

or enable class-proxies, e.g:

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableAspectJAutoProxy(proxyTargetClass = true)
public class Application {

Those are just examples, there will be other ways to implement those two solutions.
