    $("#loading").ajaxStart(function(){

              $(this).show();

       }).ajaxComplete(function(){

           $(this).hide();
       });

    $.ajaxFileUpload
    (
     {
      url:'doGetList.do',
      secureuri:false,
      fileElementId:'uploadfile',
      dataType: 'json',
      success: function (data, status)
      {

       if(typeof(data.error) != 'undefined')
       {
        if(data.error != '')
        {
         alert(data.error);
        }
        else
        {
         alert(data.msg);
        }
       }     
      },
      error: function (data, status, e)
      {
       alert(e);       
       alert(data.records);

      }

Hello.

I have the same problem in ruby on rails.

I noticed that the return header was "Content-Type: apllication/json" when I used this code...

render :json => {:error => "", :msg => data}

Then I tried to use the following instead...

render :text => {:error => "", :msg => data}.to_json

After that the return header was changed to "Content-Type: text/html", then the problem solved.
