I have image files stored in "VS_ProjectResourcesImages".
When I use the following code:
String str = Server.MapPath("a.png");
str becomes "VS_Projecta.png".
Why isn't it returning the full path?
The layout of my web app is C:inetpubwwwroot<sln folder><web app folder>. So the image folder in my web app would be the previous path images.
When I try to save to my images folder from a FileUpload control and use Server.MapPath, it drops my <sln folder>, so the path is incorrect. How do I fix this? I figured Server.MapPath just moved up the folder until it hit a drive, no?
I have a virtual directory setup in IIS6. This maps to a shared network drive.
I can correctly map the path using
string mappedPath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(path);
I then create a DirectoryInfo object as I want to find some files in the directory.
DirectoryInfo updateDirectory = new DirectoryInfo(mappedPath);
But then updateDirectory.Exists is false?? I can take the string from the mappedPath and copy into Start->Run to get to the path so I know it exists. I am authenticating to the webservice using integrated windows authentication and have permissions to the necessary folders.
Is there something obvious I'm missing in the code? Or is this purely set-up and configuration of IIS etc.?
i have a file upload control as below:
<input id="txtLocalResource" style="width:100%" type="file" size="16" name="txtLocalResource" runat="server">
in my code when i look at txtLocalResource.PostedFile.FileName it returns only the filename, the rest of the path is missing? i am using ie8 and vs2010.
I have a web application that uses Server.MapPath to specify the exact physical path of as part of upload image.
For example if I do Server.MapPath("/")
I get this:
\boswinfs04homeusersweb2676username
I was expecting something like this:
d:folder
I need to use Server.MapPath not only for image upload but several other uses.
I have an Async File Uploader control inside a Repeater which is inside an update panel. Now,I am uploading the file into ftp,so I am not uploading the video file,using SaveAs() method. For uploading the file in ftp,I have this UploadFile method which takes these four parameter:FileName, UploadPath, FTPUser, FTPPassword.Now this FileName,I have to send the full file path. My UploadComplete event looks like this:
<pre lang="cs">protected void AsyncVideoUpload_UploadedComplete(object sender, AjaxControlToolkit.AsyncFileUploadEventArgs e)
{//VideoPath is a session variable
VideoPath = string.Empty;
if (AsyncVideoUpload.HasFile)
{
// string filepath = AsyncVideoUpload.PostedFile.FileName;
string filepath = e.filename;//above two captures only the file name,but I want the total path,like c:/MyDocuments/...
UploadFile(filepath, "ftp://172.20.117.102","test","Value*12");
VideoPath = AsyncVideoUpload.PostedFile.FileName;
}
}</pre>

View 2 RepliesWhat is the difference between those two? If I only want to retrieve the absoluate path to an image on web server, is Server.MapPath safer in any case? I'm using Page.MapPath right now, but it won't work if control was created in WebService since control.Page property become null? Whether Server.MapPath always work?

I wrote some code to upload files to amazon S3, if I put a full file path manually It successfully uploads the file from my computer. What I'm trying to do is use a file upload control and store the full path in a variable so that I can use it for my amazon method. Ive read everywhere it seems that the browser won't let you get the full file path for security reasons.
How can I get the full file path? Should I just store the files on my webserver and point my amazon method to the server path, and then use the file upload control to tell it what the filename is?

View 5 Replies am a newbie to programming so please bare with me!I introduced a file upload control on one of my pages. There is a button click event for the upload which triggers not only the upload but also an insert into a table in my database.Every aspect of the button click event for this upload is working as expected; however I do have a couple of queries because the results are not quite as I would like them. I am using asp.net 3.5 and C# in code behind page.
I have a simple table with 3 columns in my database: Username, PhotoTitle and PhotoUrl. In the button click event I grab the PhotoUrl like such -string photoUrl = FileUpload1.PostedFile.Filename; (I am using the photo url from my images folder in the application to show photos in Gridviews etc. I prefer this to storing the actual image in the database for the moment until i am a bit more experienced since i don't know much about varbinary dbtype.). When the button is clicked for the upload, the details of the photo are saved in the database table, but it's the full path of the file on my laptop which is store (C:/Documents/.../filename.jpg) opposed to "Filename.jpg" for example, which i obviously would prefer because in the application photos are displayed using the"~/images/Filename.jpg" path. How can I save the file name with the extension alone in my table (without the full path)?
The second problem is basically regarding the actual photos being uploaded. They are"saved as" inside folder for the solution as anticipated, but only on the laptop harddrive, which means that I have to manually drag each photo uploaded into the images folder within Solution Explorer, from a Windows Explorer window, in order to be able to display them in Gridviews etc (with the "~/images/Filename.jpg" call in the .aspx code). This is not acceptable of course since the site users would expect to see their photo after the upload, and they would not be able to drag the file into the ~/images/ folder. How can I get round this second slight problem; i.e. is there a way to upload photos directly in the folder so that they show directly on the solution explorer?I hope my explanations of those two little problems I have didn't confuse you all?
This is what I have right now for a file residing on the same server and it works.
Dim FILENAME as String = Server.MapPath("Output.txt")
Dim objStreamWriter as StreamWriter
objStreamWriter = File.CreateText(FILENAME)
dr = myCommand.ExecuteReader()
While dr.Read()
objStreamWriter.WriteLine("{0}|{1}|{2:yyyy-MM-dd}|{3:yyyy-MM-dd}", dr(0), dr(1), dr(2), dr(3))
End While
objStreamWriter.Close()
I was planning on FTPing the file to another server once done but is there a way to do it on a remote server? i.e create a text file on a remote server and write to it? Did not find any instances of that usage. How to use ServerXMLHTTP to replace Server.MapPath in this instance?

I'm currently doing something in OrchardCMS we're using URLRewrite so that if a user comes to the site from site.com or from site.com/orchard, they get the site.com/orchard page. One of the problems is that it's throwing the urls in the menu because it's using urlHelper.RouteUrl which uses the wrong context and then produces a url like site.com/page1 rather than site.com/orchard/page1. Is there either a way to tell urlHelper.RouteUrl to start from a different page than the current one, or to get the function to return the full path?
