Web Forms :: Firefox Cannot Detect The File Type When Downloading From Live Server
Apr 28, 2010
i have some problem on downloading file which file types are .doc, .docx and .pdf.
I have wrote the code for downloading when the button is click. the button can download these three types of file when click.
[Code]....
But, i have some weird condition. when i test in my local pc using the firefox, the downloading box popup with the file type detected. but when i upload the code files in live server and test the download button using firefox, the downloading popup but it cannot detect the file type.
therefore, i can proceed the download process using the firefox but i failed to open the files coz it dun have the file type.
My requirement is client has to download files which were uploaded by employees. But if the file name contains a space, Mozilla Firefox use only the name up to the first white space and remaining name is truncated. Is it issue with mozilla firefox? if so how can i get rid of this. Important thing is in IE its working well.
Ive created a Web App where it is possible to download an xml file from the server to the client. It works just fine except that the Save Dialog recognizes the file being dowloaded as of type .aspx and the name of the file as being the name of the page I' on. The page is called Download.aspx and it contains a button that when clicked executes the following code:
[Code]....
The save dialog appears and says:
Name: Download.aspx
Type: ASP.NET Server Page, 1,16KB
From: 127.0.0.1
If I download the file and open it it contains the correct Xml file content and nothing else, so it is working correctly. It just annoys me that it appears to the user that he is downloading the aspx site (and it shows up as such in windows explorer as well) rather than the xml file which is the actual content.
I'm trying to let the user download different documents where the data is stored in an SQL DB. In firefox, the filetype is correctly read, but not in IE. I'm trying to do this without having to set the ".pdf" or whatever extension the document has, because I haven't got that information. I only have the filetype.

I able to successfully see all the Excel files in the given folder using the datagrid and code below. Now I would like to be able to click the link to the file, or add a button, to get a download file dialog box. [Code]....

When i deploy it on the server; and run my program, i get a message saying that download has completed successfully. But the problem is that the file is downloaded on the server machine in the filefolder (LocalFileFolder). I want it to be downloaded on the local machine. What is it that I am doing wrong?

When I'm trying to download a 50 MB file from a database (it is not an issue with a smaller file size), it stops in the middle sometimes and resumes again after a long time.
I've looked all over the web for something that would show me how to do this but can't find it. I have a page that uploads information about an individual including a resume in the form of a doc docx or pdf. I can upload the file okay but I do not know how to, on another page, To download the file that was loaded to that person's row in the database. Here is the upload code

I am using an ASP.NET FileUpload to upload files to the server. How to upload it to the rootfolder of my project. I want to add the files to a collection or list of files to be shown on the webpage in the form of gridview.

The gridview will also have a delete column so that I can delete any of the corresponding file-as desired.
While uploading file on live server i get this error.
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'xxxwork-max.comTelecomimageslogo.gif' is denied.
ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.
<identity impersonate="true"/> promotes for user name and password each time i select

we are working on a file download page. We want to download a file with a name with spaces and accents. Although the filename is shown correctly on the filedownload dialog, when we click open, the file name is shown with %e1%ba%a3n%20... on notepad. ('Save as' shows the correct name) This problem only happens in Internet Explorer.
Is there anyway we can Display the file name correctly (on the target application) after opening it (without saving) from file download dialog ?
