I have a problem with FileUpload, when I select a file from the local machine, it will not bring the real path of the file, it will use the path for the project files and assume the file I am selecting is there, any ideas?
Example: File name is "Q.JPG" and is in "C:\" when I browse to "C:\" and select "Q.JPG" and click open, I get the following Error Could not find file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\q.jpg'. So when I fire up the code for Uploading the file to FTP for example, it will return an error because file doesn't exist
HTML side:
<asp:FileUpload ID="FU" runat="server" Height="24px" />
Below is the VB code:
Protected Sub btnUpload_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnUpload.Click
If FU.PostedFile IsNot Nothing AndAlso FU.PostedFile.FileName <> "" Then
Dim MaxSize As Integer = FU.PostedFile.ContentLength
If MaxSize > "2097152" Then
lblUpload.Text = "The file size cannot exceed 2 MB"
btnSave.Focus()
GoTo 99
End If
'--------------------------
' set up request...
Dim LocFile As String = FU.PostedFile.FileName
Dim clsRequest As System.Net.FtpWebRequest = DirectCast(System.Net.WebRequest.Create("ftp://myftp.com/" & LocFile), System.Net.FtpWebRequest)
clsRequest.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password")
clsRequest.Method = System.Net.WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile
' read in file...
Dim bFile() As Byte = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(FU.PostedFile.FileName)
' upload file...
Dim clsStream As System.IO.Stream = clsRequest.GetRequestStream()
clsStream.Write(bFile, 0, bFile.Length)
clsStream.Close()
clsStream.Dispose()
'--------------------------
lblUpload.Text = "Uploaded"
btnSave.Focus()
Else
lblUpload.Text = "Choose a file to upload"
btnSave.Focus()
End If
99: 'Do Nothing
End Sub
