File upload failure to cakephp

Hi Grourp,

I m newbie to the CakePHP, trying to upload xlsx file to CakePHP

Below is my view code

            <?php
            echo $this->Form->create('Program', array('action' => 'importexcel', 'type' => 'file'));
            echo $this->Form->file('Document');
            echo $this->Form->submit(__('Upload', true));
            ?>

And below is my Controller code to print array for to check. Later i would like to use the output of the array to perform upload using PHPExcel.

    public function importexcel()
        {

                if (isset($this->data)) {
                echo 'DATA:';
                var_dump($this->data);
                echo 'FILES:';
                var_dump($_FILES);
                }
       }

Output of the controller is as below

DATA:

array    'Program' =>       array        'Document' => string 'import.xlsx' (length=11)

 

FILES:

array    empty  

I need to get the properties, data of the $this->data in the controller so that i can use them in IOFactory of PHPExcel for uploading.

Can someone please help me correct my view/controller code.

Thank you very much.
