I am trying to upload an audio file in "caf" format from the iPhone to a web server. The used codes are given below. The problem is, I am not getting any file to upload, there is not output for the file names in PHP echo ! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The code I am using at the iPhone end is:
NSData *fileData=[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:recordedTmpFile];
NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://somelink.com/upload.php"];
NSMutableURLRequest *request=[NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
[request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
NSString *boundary = [NSString stringWithString:@"---------------------------14737809831466499882746641449"];
NSString *contentType = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"audio/x-caf; boundary=%@",boundary];
[request setValue:contentType forHTTPHeaderField: @"Content-Type"];
NSMutableData *body = [NSMutableData data];
[body appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"\r\n--%@\r\n",boundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[body appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"userfile\"; filename=\"%@\"\r\n",[recordedTmpFile lastPathComponent]] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[body appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Type: audio/x-caf\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[body appendData:fileData];
[body appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"\r\n--%@--\r\n",boundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[request setHTTPBody:body];
NSError *errr=nil;
NSURLResponse *resp=nil;
NSData *returnData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&resp error:&errr];
NSString *returnString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:returnData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
And the PHP code is:
echo "start";
echo "1".$_FILES['userfile']['name'];
echo "2".$_FILES['userfile']['type'];
echo "end";
Thanks.

Edit #1 :
using @Gypsa 's edit, I get an error. Code and Error message follows:
Code:
NSString *urlString = @"http://somelink/upload.php";
NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:[urlString stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
ASIFormDataRequest *request=[ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:url];
NSLog(@"3333");
//NSString *
[request addFile:recordedTmpFile forKey:@"userfile"];
[request setRequestMethod:@"POST"];
//[request setDelegate:self];
NSLog(@"555");
[request setTimeOutSeconds:500];
[request startSynchronous];
NSLog(@"666");
NSLog(@"responseStatusCode %i",[request responseStatusCode]);
NSLog(@"responseString %@",[request responseString]);
Error Message:

Edit #2: Looks like I needed to make the address of the audio file from NSURL to NSString which I did :
NSString urlString=[url absoluteString];
However, now I am not getting any response from my php page..the response is null :(
Edit #3:
The error message I get reads :
responseError Error Domain=ASIHTTPRequestErrorDomain Code=6 "No file exists at file://localhost/var/folders/45/45y8AmvjHvyUUl0mCOpmC++++TI/-Tmp-/328620103851.caf" UserInfo=0x534e500 {NSLocalizedDescription=No file exists at file://localhost/var/folders/45/45y8AmvjHvyUUl0mCOpmC++++TI/-Tmp-/328620103851.caf}
The response status code is 0.
Edit #4:
Solved !!! See the answer :)
