How Do I: Simple File Uploads in ASP.NET

Does anyone know how to change the C# code to upload to a relative directory so it doesn't matter if you change hosting companies?

Pls kindly indicate hw to upload image files to

Server.MapPath(".") will give you the current directy, then you can append the relative path. Remember the app still needs write access to the directory.

thanks but i want to knew how to download the file that i have upload

laxmikanth - if they can view them, they can download them. Really the only solution is to DRM them.

samix - you either need to let the user do a directory listing or you need to create a web link somewhere after uploading.

what are the parameters in fileupload.input stream??

simple way to download is

http://sitename/file.zip

we can also download as Server.MapPath(".")

also.. try msdn.microsoft.com/.../aa478985.aspx

hope this will solve your the issue.

thanks, momin

hi,sorry 4 giving so many comments.But is was not my faults cause the webpage showed I hv error so I keep on posting. Can u help me 2 delete the repeated comments. Thanks

Very interesting video and presentation.

Can you advise how to change the code to upload a file from a client PC to a web based server - the ASP FileUpload seems quite happy when the saving location is a physical drive including C:/ or something similar, but not at all for a virtual drive such as http://www.domain.com/storage/

I need to upload an Access mdb from a client computer, on a fairly regular basis (every 3 days or so) to a shared hosting web server where I don't have access to the physical drive - the mdb will then be queried by further ASP pages. The comp0uter operator is not computer savvy so this has to be a painless, automated routine built into an ASP.NET form like the FileUpload systenm you demonstrated

I get the physical system on my own drive OK, but fail when trying to switch to the virtuals systm on the server. I have tried various permutations including Server.MapPath with no luck. Any ideas for me please ? What am I doing wrong ? Do I need to code in UID and PWD for webserver access also ?

Latest attempt at these lines was :

filePath = "http://www.domain.com/storage/" & FileUpLoad1.FileName

FileUpLoad1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(filePath))

Thanks
