Solution 1:

You can't use input file on Phonegap. It's not supported. You need make something like this:

functionuploadDatabase(callback) {
// file.entry accessible from global scope; see other tutorialvar filepath = file.entry.fullPath,
    uploadOptions = newFileUploadOptions(),
    transfer = newFileTransfer(),
    endpoint = "http://facepath.com/payload";

uploadOptions.fileKey = "db";
uploadOptions.fileName = "database.db";
uploadOptions.mimeType = "text/plain";

transfer.upload(filepath, endpoint, transferComplete,
                        transferError, uploadOptions);

}

in mime type put the type of file
