I get it when I use

Answer 1

The DiskFileItem class from the Commons FileUpload library uses java.rmi.server.UID internally and usage of this class is forbidden by the Google Apps runtime environment. Since DiskFileItem is caching the uploaded file on the server file system and disk access is forbidden by Google Apps anyway, removing the dependency on the RMI specific UID class won't solve your problem.
