You are missing a name attribute on your file input.

<form name="uploadForm" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="api/upload" >

    <input type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form>

Inputs without it will not get submitted by the browser. So your formdata is empty resulting in IsFaulted being asserted.
