Not able to read content of the file which has parsed in multiPart() method

[johanhaleby]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
> I have created tenantAdd() method - to add a tenant user by taking json input 
in a text file using multipart() method.
> Manually using POST REST client /using body() method when I parse the json 
input it works fine, but using multipart() method it is not working.

> Method:
 =======

      public static void tenantAdd(){
        Response res=given().headers("Accept","application/json")
.contentType("application/json")
.multiPart(newFile("file","D:/t/json.txt"))
.log().everything().when().post("/sites/"+id+"/tenants");
                res.prettyPrint();
      }



> D:/t/json.txt file input:
 ========================
 {
 "name" : "Test ",
 "description" : "administration tenant", "password" : "Test_123", "email" : " test@test.com "
 }


 It is failing with below error:
 ==============================
> {
>      "detail": "Create tenant fails, cause: null",
>      "title": "Internal Server Error caused by unexpected exception",
>      "errorCode": "EMVI-WS-11019",
>      "problemType": "http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/HTRESP.html",

,
>      "problemInstance": 
"/em/websvcs/restful/extws/virtualization/infrastructure/v1/sites/<id>/tenants"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Could it be some charset issues? Perhaps you can try specifying 
charset/mimetype when sending the multipart request?
