According to https://simplesassim.wordpress.com/tag/drools-guvnor-rest-api/, it appears that you may also need to add your file content as a "binary" argument.
multipart.bodyPart(new FormDataBodyPart("asset",file,MediaType.APPLICATION_XML_TYPE));
multipart.bodyPart(new FormDataBodyPart("binary",file)); // Add this line
I hope that the above change helps.
