I think the file upload is in $c->request->upload - I have a file called
"image", which I access with $c->request->upload("image"), does that help?

There's no problem with my code - in fact I migrated to an Ubuntu 12.04
LTS EC2 image that I found and it is working fine there. I just won't
upgrade, I guess. Clearly something broken in whatever the newest
release that is in the 14.04 or 16.04 server packages.

Hi,
We need more info to help understand this.  Like from what version of Catalyst did you upgrade from and what is the new version?  Also we'd need to see more details about the actual code that is working differently.
In general AFAIK file uploads are supposed to be in $c->req->uploads although I also think the filename or something is in req->body_parameters.  In general I tell people to avoid ->param and ->parameters since the munging of GET and BODY parameters can lead to weird bugs and security issues so modifying your code might be worth the time.  ->param is especially problematic (see the security notes over at https://metacpan.org/pod/Catalyst::Request#req-param )
There was a lot of work done on those bits when we worked on the UTF-8 support stuff, FWIW.
Please consider trying to work through this rather than just introducing a local hack or just saying, "fuck it I'm not going to bother upgrading."  As an open source project Catalyst can only improve when people bother.  
If you can get on IRC (irc.perl.org#catalyst) you might be able to get more timely help.
