View 5 RepliesI am experiencing the following page error when trying to use the FileUpload control on my web page to upload files larger than 3MB or so. The error is as follows:"Problem loading page The connection was reset The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."I suspect this may be due to a timout issue. If so, how can I increase the timeout period for this control / process? I am coding in VB.NET.

In my application Im saving multiple files(image,pdf,txt) to a folder. Suppose I have an image with name "image1", if this image already exists in the folder and if another user tries to add another image with the same name "image1" then, it should give message to change the File name.
I had used below code:
string filePath = DamRep_FileUpload.PostedFile.FileName;
string filename = Path.GetFileName(filePath);
string contenttype = String.Empty;

I have Fileupload control in my page

I am using the fileupload control to upload an excel file to a server, but I am getting a
"Access to the path '\<server>importResponses.xls' is denied" when I try to use fileUploader.SaveAs(filepath). The filepath I use is \<server>importResponses.xls, so I am actually saving it to a share on a different server.My environment consists of a web server and a database server. I am trying to upload the excel file to a share on the database server. A stored procedure then takes that excel file and imports the data from it into a table. So the problem isn't with being unable to save a file to a share on the web server, but it's a problem with being unable to save a file to a share on the database server. It used to work, but now it doesn't and I have no idea why. What process(es) on the database server do I need grant write access for in order for the fileupload control to successfully save the excel file?Right now, I only have the Network Service account with read/write access to the share on the database server. I tried adding other accounts, such as the ASPNET and IUSR_<server name> accounts, but nothing seems to work.The web application that does the actual uploading is configured like this:
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<identity impersonate="true"/>
Could that have anything to do with it?If you're asking why I'm trying to save an excel file on the database server instead of on the web server, this was the only way I got this to work. If anyone has a better suggestion on how to programatically import excel data into a SQL table, I am all ears.

View 1 RepliesI have a 2 FileUpload controls.
Once the user selects a file in the first control, I want to set the default value for the 2nd control to be the value from the first control.
For example, if it were textbox controls I would just use TextBox1.text = TextBox2.text.
How do I do this for FileUpload controls? I tried a few different properties, such as FileUpload1.FileName = FileUpload2.FileName but I get an error saying that they are Read Only.
I would like to simply have an image button on my page that would show an image that says something like "Upload File".When the user clicks the button I would like for it to automate popping up the "select file dialog" exactly like the "browse" button does on the FileUpload control now. Then if the user selects a file and click "OK" I want to do a post back where I can then initiate the upload. If the user clicks cancel from the dialog I would do nothing.So all I am trying to do her is make it so that the user does not see the text box for the file name and replace the plain old browse button with an image and do a postback if they click ok from the dialog.

View 6 Repliesi am working on an ecommerce application, user will be uploading several images of a product, instead of stripping the size (i.e the KB or MB size) after uploading it on the server, i want to strip the size of image before uploading it to the server ( bringing the size from any thing over 30KB down to 30KB) i.e on the client machine itself and then upload it to the server. i understand that this requires a download on the client machine which makes me ask the following questions :
a. can i use a java control in dotnet since java control can be used on all OSes
b. is there any dotnet control that might be userfriendly to all OSes
I have a site that uploads multiple PDF files from a CD from one specific computer and that computer is the server that will store the PDF files. I want to do this without having doezens of fileupload controls as the number of PDF files vary from CD to CD.
My problem is that I want the whole process automated. The site will read the names of the PDF files on the CD to the SQL server, which will match, parse, and delete unneeded information with the actual names in a comma delimited textfile. I have that all completed, but i'm only getting the filenames of the PDF and no the contents of the PDF's themselves (They all show 0KB). I am certain that the problem is that i'm pulling from Directory.GetFiles and it's only saving the filenames instead of the files themselves. Is there any way to set the upload path for the filecontrol?
i need when i select a image in fileupload control then path should store in a textbox. actually in gridview i have a image control ,one fileupload control and a textbox control. so when user trying to edit one image and click Edit button from gridview and chose a image from fileupload control then path should be store in relative textbox control.below is my design.

I'm having a little problem with my file uploading. Does anybody know how to maintain the value in the FileUpload control between server posts?
I have a form which, among other things, uploads a file. I am using an ileUpload control (created dynamically) to let a user browse their PC for a file and then using the SaveAs method to upload the file to the server.When I'm selecting a file and Click on Next button for processing then selected file is lost.
Same is happening with me with HtmlTextArea (dynamically generated) , the problem was that I was not again re-initializing the controls after postback. What I did is re-initialized it in Init method of placeholder (as I have created/placed all dynamic controls in placeholder ).
But this thing is not working for fileupload control. I found solution in one of the forum is that "use hiddenField Control to transfer the selected file from the client to server"but this mechanism will only help to retain the name of file
in a hidden variable and the FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(filename) will not work bcz of absense of object (fileupload1).
here is code:
