Web Forms :: Uploading File - Don't Save In Folder In Solution Explorer
May 25, 2010
I m uploading a file and reading it. The problem is I dont want to save that file in a folder which is in my solution explorer. I want to save it in a different Drive. I m saving the file in a different drive using web.cofig <add key="UploadFileLocation" value="C:\VOL0\Upload\"/> and I m saving using code FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["UploadFileLocation"] + SaveLocation); all goes fine, but I m reading the file and it is throwing an exception when I m trying to read file.
I have sql database db1..I am using this db1 for my web application...I had taken a back up for this file db1.bak......I want to restore this .bak file to a machine where no sql server is installed..Visual studio is working with solution explorer,where we can create tables,sp's etc...can I able to restore the .bak file to solution explorer?
Weird Sunday morning question: I routinely drag files into my projects from Windows Explorer. But I just created a new project and I get the slashed circle every time I try to drag in a file from Windows Explorer. I closed the project and opened another one just to confirm that I wasn't having a foggy Sunday morning problem but I _am_ able to drag files into the this other project. Trying to drag the same file into my new project won't work. What's up with this?!
So I would like my solution to save in the same folder as the rest of my files. I am a win forms developer so web is new to me.
1) Is there any reason why I shouldn't do that for web.
2) Second how do I do that. I know that I can change the solution's saving location by changing ToolsOptionProjects & SolutionsProject's Location. However, I just want it to use the location of the new website I create and not that specification.
i am working on a project in which I want user to upload files on to my website so for that i created a folder in which i'll store all those stuffs.now the thing is that it is all working fine on localhost but when i use it on server ,,it provides an error which is
Access to the path 'C:inetpubvhostsebas.co.inhttpdocsuploadsfile.exe' is denied.
i think this probably has something to do with the access permission for the folder...So could you tell me what are the permissions required to be set for this job to be done on server.
I have all my images in image folder in my project, when I try to open that folder in my project then I cannot see those images listed in it, though I can attach those images to it is there anything in the settings?
i use to upload a photo to a server this piece of code:
uplTheFile.PostedFile.SaveAs(Path);
But the Path can't be relative (like ~\Photos\image.jpg) .
I was thinking of getting the location of the .aspx file from where i upload the image and attach \Photos\image.jpg to it, but i don't know how to get the address (location ) of my .aspx page on the server .
I am maintaining a web application that allows word template documents do be opened inside the browser.
Recently the client upgraded to windows 7 and MS Word 2007 and my problems started... When a template document is opened inside the browser and saved, the original file is overwrited instead of a new word file being created.
Is there a way to force ms word inside the browser to behave the same as when it runs outside the browser?
When one creates a new Web Form, Solution Explorer reflects it by adding it to the list, correct? Okay, let me describe this the only way I know how, seeing how I'm a noob and all.The icon representing the item is colorful, with certain features on it with a little bit of yellow at the bottom part of thebackground. While executing my application I notice that certain functionality has ceased to work, when I had made no changes to it, or so I think. I look over at my Solution Explorer and notice that the icon has changed. Now it looks like a simple blank piece of paper. Also, when I highlight the item in Solution Explorer, the Properties window is now missing two attributes: 'Build Action' and 'Copy to Output Directory'.
I have a file uploader I would like to be able to have a folder added to the folder path on upload based on a textbox.text "MapPath("~/Uploads/" + Path.GetFileName(e.filename))"
I have Dim folder as String = textbox.text how do I add folder to MapPath("~/Uploads/"
it currently checks for .xml files how can I add more .doc .gif etc
Dim savePath As String = MapPath("~/Uploads/" + Path.GetFileName(e.filename)) 'Validation for file extension If Path.GetExtension(e.filename).Contains(".xml") Then Return End If
I have a solution that I pasted some files into. The files that were pasted into it won't show up in the solution explorer. These files are for a tutorial from MSDN. The files were pasted into the folder that contains the solution using the file system.I then refreshed the solution explorer to include the files. I've done this before with out issue. For some reason it won't work this time. When I did this before I pasted the files into the folder that holds the solution, refreshed the solution explorer and then had to include the files into the project and all was good.
I have written a website and let the user upload their photo. It also resizes the picture to 400 x 400 and crops automatically to the center part of the picture. All of this works good but each file is about 355K each for JPG and PNG file formats. I just tried GIF and it is 49K but the picture is grainy when saved this way. Is there any way I can get the picture to a smaller file size with keeping it at 400 x 400? I really thought PNG would be the way to go and was surprised by it being the same as jpg. I don't want to lower the quality either for JPG files.
Is there a way to change the colors (or perhaps add an overlay) to the files in Solution Explorer?It would be great to be able to 'tag' the files with different colors so that you can see for example what status the different files have.
I used the ASP.net Web Site Administration tool to create a database with two users and two roles. The database created successfully and is showing up in Solution Explorer in the App_Data folder of my project, as expected. The problem is, that when I click on the database I get an error message saying that "SQL Server database files (.mdf) require SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Server 2008 Express to be installed and running on the local computer." I, in fact, have 3 versions of SQL Server running on my computer. SQL Server Express (default instance), SQL Server Express (named instance for Outlook 2010 Business Contact Manager), and SQL Server 2008 R2 (Developer Edition). If I create a new connection in Server Explorer and then attach the database file, it attaches fine. It's only in Solution Explorer that it somehow is not connecting.
I have two web forms inside the same project folder that will be very similar when completed. When I copy a web form and paste it in the project folder by its new name I can see the .aspx file, the aspx.cs and aspx.designer.cs all by the new name. Appears to work perfect...........Why don't these show up when I view the Solution Folder? I was hoping to copy one, make changes and rename the second one saving time. Appears to not be tied into the Project.
by mistake a .aspx and its corresponding .vb file was deleted from my project's solution explorer.Its not there in Recycle Bin too.Is there any method to recover that file ? I am using Visual Studio 2008. Win XP SP1.
I have noticed today that when you create a directory in code in a web application the resulting folder structure is not created in the solution explorer (It is fine on disk and app can still access all the files I am not sure if there is a setting that I am missing or is this a bug?Steps to reproduce
Create a new C# web application in VS 2010. Create a new web page (Default.aspx) and add a file upload control and a button.on the click event on the button add the following code
[Code]....
When the form posts back refresh the solution explorer and the new directory does not appear.Check your file system and the file will be there.Not a massive issue but frustrating.
