HttpHandlers / Modules :: Write The Response Stream Content To A File On Disk
Jan 20, 2011
I have an httpmodule and it has a handler for OnEndRequest. I am trying to write the HttpContext.Response.OutputStream to a file. I am trying to use the Read method of it. But when it is called the exception message i get is "Specified method is not supported". So i am not able to do what i want that is, write the response to a file on the disk. I am able to write the HttpContext.Request.InputStream to a file using its Read method which i do in a handler for OnBeginRequest.
I need to to export a file to the user. It takes 1-2 min to generate the file so I'd like to have the page go into a kind-of modal mode with a layover on the page and a 'Working' spinner showing. The problem is I can't make the modal stuff go away after Save File dialog is closed.
How can I remove the layover after the dialog is done?
I have this httpHandler that reads a varbinary(MAX) field from the database and stream it as an FLV video. Now, how do I implement sequential access in this handler? I need it to read bytes in chunks and stream it.I call the id of the video that is to be played, e.g ViewFilm.ashx?id=5I know I'm supposed to add CommandBehavior.SequentialAcces in the ExecuteReader(), but the rest I can't get to work.I also read that someone had a problem with this but does it concern me?[URL]
i have a application which use to store video in sql databasei want to have a function which should have return type of video so that i can pass it to player in next page, for that i have retrived it as byte stream but dont know how to return it as video file.if i am going wrong then suggest me some other way.Note video are based on authentication so no way to switch to file system
I have an excel file in my Response Output stream. I can Open the stream as a file after a prompt, but it doesn't seem I can save it directly to a specified folder on my client.
i wanted find find out a way to re-write the url in my asp.net site,for example i have a page call "SearchResultsByModel.aspx" and when it comes to the query string on this page its like bellow
Is is possible to write to the http response stream from a dynamically created bitmap using the Response.Write/WriteFile without saving the image to the hard drive?
According to MSDN documentation, this is supposed to set the Cache header "Expires" to a certian value. A check of fiddler for the response from my handler indicates the Expires is being ignored. Is this a known bug? I see other posts where people have just given up with out an answer.
i am trying to have a download on my page. I have implemented the code below but code execution stops after the download message pops up, even if i press save or cancel, nothing happens after that.
[Code]....
I have tried it a few times without Response.Clear() and Response.End() but it didn't make any difference to take these off. Is there anyway I can achieve this without having to using an IFrame?
I have developed a quick module that adds some text to the bottom of every page. This text will basically inform the user they are using my application in a test environment and save me editing the Master/Content pages for all my files.Sadly, my code adds the string AFTER the </html> tag, which isn't very good. Can anyone advise how to make this module add the stringprevious to the </body> tag, so that it gets rendered correctly according the HTML standards?
am trying to write an HttpModule that will work in IIS7 with integrated pipeline mode AppPool. Within this module I need to access Session variables and to be able to capture the Session Start and End events. I have found a couple of articles on this topic that indicate the need to modify the behavior of the HttpHandler in PostAcquireRequestState to force the Session for the context to be initialized. The article I am using as a template is posted here:[URL]In my case I am getting the following error:
[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.] System.Web.PipelineModuleStepContainer.GetEventCount(RequestNotification notification, Boolean isPostEvent) +30 System.Web.PipelineStepManager.ResumeSteps(Exception error) +1112 System.Web.HttpApplication.BeginProcessRequestNotification(HttpContext context, AsyncCallback cb) +113 System.Web.HttpRuntime.ProcessRequestNotificationPrivate(IIS7WorkerRequest wr, HttpContext context) +616
I believe that this error implies a problem with attempting to attach an event handler multiple times. I am aware that the modules Init function can be called more than once and have set a static initialization flag which ensures that I will only ever attach the event handler once.In the most condensed form my code is as follows:
public class HttpModule : IHttpModule, IRequiresSessionState
Our website used to be a php website, now everything changed to .net, but the customer still want to keep the original php Request url. I want to know How to set Handler mapping on IIS7 to redirect .php file to .aspx file ? In more details, when you click handler mappings on IIS 7.0, what kind of hanlder should you add (add managed handler or add script map or add wild card script map or add module mapping) to redirect .php file to .aspx file?
I've a view which display all data. I'm using ViewData, for loop etc.. on the view, to show the data. It may sound weird, but is it possible to write view to disk as a file instead of showing in the browser. The reason is that, business wants functionality to send the same view file as email attachment to the user.
I am having a specific requirement of which I am not sure it is even possible to do but I have read somewhere in the past few days that similar to what I am trying to achieve shoud be done by writing a custom HttpHandler (or module?). Basically, I currently have a simple aspx page that accepts a file upload and forwards it to another URL (after doing some checking). The way this currently works is that my Page_Loaded gets called only after the entire file is uploaded.
What I am looking to achieve is get a hold of an uploaded file Stream early on as soon as request headers are processed so I could do some sort of piping froim the uploaded file Stream to my destination Stream. With large files this should be extra beneficial because there is no waiting time for the large file to get uploaded and my gut feeling tells me this way the memory footprint should also be lower. What I need is a forward-only Stream. No seeking needed. Therefore, I don't need to manage the entire uploaded file at some point in time. I just want to send the bytes as soon as they are received (with some lightweight processing in between).
Here is my problem, I've created a button image, by clicking on it, it should popup a window to save as the document. This is working fine, my only point is : it showing the name of the page instead of the file. But when i download it, I've the right file.
I have implemented URL rewritting in my application. I did it in Application_BeginRequest located in Global.asax. My url rewritting in working fine. Now in order to maintain rewritting during post back.
I have added code line this.Form.Action = Request.RawUrl; in page load event in order to maintain rewritten URL during post back. When I am adding below code on image button click to download file it doesn't work. It says "Internet explorer cannot display webpage". When I am removing line this.Form.Action = Request.RawUrl; from page load then downloading file will start working but URL rewritting will not work on postback.
Due to some strange things I need to write an http module that sends a status code 200 whenever it recieves a request for an .ics file. I tried to do this in the begin request setion of the http module but that doesnt seem to be soon enough.
i have a custom handler which captures user's book mark entry. To debug this handler, i have created a file "test1.txt" in code behind which saves the user entry. After the debug, i removed the text file (test1.txt) then re-complied the web app and deployed new DLLs for the site. But, the site is still looking for test1.txt file. i dont know how to confirm if the handler is really removed from the new DLL. Also, looked at the handler code behind file and didn't find any entry with test1.txt. So,
