You are likely to encounter various issues here, you may want to use a 
database to either store the data or to store a refernce to the data. 
There are already several tools out their that do this, including MS's 
Tahoe, Opentext's Livelink (http://www.opentext.com) and Lotus' Raven. 
Perhaps one of those would be a better tool. 
If you really want to implement it using JSP, I suggest that you take 
the file as a standard HTTP transfer from an HTML form and then either 
store it as a binary file in a database or store a pointer to it in a 
database and the file somewhere else. as for indexing and searching, it 
is quicker to ask for keywords from the user or let them select form a 
list. To properly search & index a document is a very difficult job, 
due to the differing file formats and versions.
