I need to display pdf using my web application each time user clicks on image icon.On clicking the image, I will call another web application(imageUrl) which will open up the pdf.Please find the code below:
I'm getting this message when going to a web app that accesses my service.
"The content type text/html of the response message does not match the content type of the binding (text/xml; charset=utf-8)..."
The thing is, it happens once in a while even when no changes have been made to the service or the web app. And I can make it go away most of the time by going directly to the .svc?wsdl page in my browser and then coming back to the web app.
I connect to a web address using HttpWebRequest object (http://www.website.com/page1.aspx), this page should redirect me to another page (http://www.website.com/page2.aspx). What I want to do are two things:
Redirect (http://www.website.com/page1.aspx) to (http://www.website.com/page2.aspx) by HttpWebRequest obeject.Get the new URL (http://www.website.com/page2.aspx) from HttpWebResponse.
When inserting a binary file do you know what will be the correct content type for extensions like .txt or .gif or others not in your sample? Is there a list of correct content types?
I'm trying to read a response from an encoded apache server, the post works fine but i'm ripping my hair out over the response, it was working yesterday and they've turned off compression now so there is no contenttype encoding getting passed back.I'm using fiddler and getting this response back for the response type below; i'm basically trying to read a XML into a XmlDocument from the responded string and all i'm geetting back is encoded characters no matter what i do, so can someone please give me a hand with this before i make myself bald before 30.
I have a file, a.pdf, stored on a SharePoint server behind Windows authentication. I want to make a.pdf available through another Web app with forms authentication. Basically, link is clicked and up pops the open / save as dialog for the pdf (or other document file) I've set up my HTTPWebRequest and passed credentials, getting my data into a stream (file.GetResponseStream).
I've tried converting the stream to a byte array and then using response.write or response.output.write with no luck (stream not seekable) I've tried using a streamreader and doing a response.write(streamreader.readtoend()) and response.write(memorystream.toarray(),0,memorystream.toarray().length) with no luck (the message received from the server could not be parsed).
Everything works absolutly fine in dev, but when I move the solution to IIS 7, I get this error! CompanyWeb is the masterpage, which is located in the login directory. Here is the page directive for login.aspx, which is the offending page
My problem is that although the response length is correct at around 21MB, the stream is returned far too quickly (pretty much instant) and the byte array ends up being filled with only a small number of bytes. The response is clearly not returning the full file so what am I doing wrong?
I am uploading a file on a MVC Action. The file I am uplading is a PDF document.However, on the controller I get "application/octet-stream" as ContentType instead of "application/pdf".Do I need to install Adobe Acrobat Reader on the system so that a PDF file is recongnized?
I able to upload my file through uploadify + .ashx, but the problem is I always get ContentType = application/octet-streamLets say I upload an image, I expected to return me "image/pjpeg", but it always return "application/octet-stream" no matter what file I uploaded.how to get the correct contentType in .ashx
In order to support a legacy application that's in the field, I need my ASP.NET MVC app to return an empty response that also has a Content-Type. One of IIS, ASP.NET, or ASP.NET MVC is removing my Content-Type when I send back a null response. Is there any way around this? (While not requiring an empty response with a set Content-Type would obviously be the ideal solution, the clients are already out there, and many of them cannot be upgraded.)
EDIT: Since there was a request for code: I'm proxying the request from the new web application to the one that older clients rely on. To do this, I have a subclass of ActionResult, called LegacyResult, that you can simply return for those methods that need to be handled by the old software. This is the relevant part of its code:
public override void ExecuteResult(ControllerContext context) { using (var legacyResponse = GetLegacyResponse(context)) { var clientResponse = context.HttpContext.Response; clientResponse.Buffer = false; clientResponse.ContentType = legacyResponse.ContentType; /* Yes, I checked that legacyResponse.ContentType is never string.IsNullOrEmpty */ if (legacyResponse.ContentLength >= 0) clientResponse.AddHeader("Content-Length", legacyResponse.ContentLength.ToString()); var legacyInput = legacyResponse.GetResponseStream(); using (var clientOutput = clientResponse.OutputStream) { var rgb = new byte[32768]; cb; while ((cb = legacyInput.Read(rgb, 0, rgb.Length)) > 0) { clientOutput.Write(rgb, 0, cb); } clientOutput.Flush(); } } }
If legacyInput has data, then Content-Type is set appropriately. Otherwise, it's not. I can actually kluge the old backend to send an empty v. non-empty response for exactly the same request, and observe the difference in Fiddler.
EDIT 2: Poking around with Reflector reveals that, if headers have not been written at the time that HttpResponse.Flush is called, then Flush writes out the headers itself. The problem is that it only writes out a tiny subset of the headers. One of the missing ones is Content-Type. So it seems that, if I can force headers out to the stream, I can avoid this problem.
I have a simple upload page using the html file element. I choose a .pdf file to upload and when I inspect the Content type of the file when it goes to server the value is "application/msword" instead of "application/pdf"
I'd like to set the default content-type for web pages in my ASP.NET MVC application to text/html.
I know this can be done by adding a ContentType="text/html" to all of my <%Page%> elements, but I'd prefer to use the web.config instead. How can I do that?
Edit: I know that "text/HTML" is the ASP.NET default, but for unknown reasons Opera still tries to parse my web site as XHML unless I explicitly set the content-type in my <%Page%> element.
I'm busy writing a handler to serve various documents for download or presentation in web forms pages. The documents range from various image formats, to PDF, to MS Office documents, to generic binaries. My basic draft of the download process is as below:
[code]....
However, I have some misgivings about lumping all documents together as application/octet-stream, and I would prefer, if feasible, to use a more specific content type per document type. I have a DB table for document types where I could store this. Am I going in the right direction, and if so, where can I find a suitable starting list of content types for document types?
I tried to post data to client HTTPPost URL, as per the client specification I need to post the data using "Post" method and I used the same. But it throws an error "The remote server returned an error: (500)Internal Server Error". in the HTTpWebResponse.My post URL does not have any specific page like http://abc.com/post/post.aspx. the actual URL looks like "http://abc.com/post", Can we post the lead without any specific page like I said in the above URl?
I'm implementing PayPal PDT (Payment Data Transfer) for payment confirmations in ASP.NET.'m going to receive a url post from PayPal with query string parameters. Then I need to send back the form at the bottom of the page.I'd like to implement the form at the bottom as a non-visual HttpWebRequest.
I have a simple web site with two pages. One displays a list of files, and the other streams a file when it's clicked in the list. All was fine in production for 6 months, but now I have to move the site to Windows 2008/IIS7. I have it mostly working, but the files don't open properly (in Firefox) because my content-type header is being ignored. On the production site (IIS6) the headers are (using Fiddler):
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Tue, 09 Feb 2010 16:00:51 GMT Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 X-Powered-By: ASP.NET X-AspNet-Version: 2.0.50727 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="myfile__foo.pdf" Content-Length: 236841 Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store Pragma: no-cache Expires: -1 Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Now I googled the error and found replies as below and changed the request stream lines in the above to the commented out response streams, this no longer throws the error but now no longer copies the file to the ftp site?
Does a HttpWebResponse.StatusCode detect Asp.Net errors? Mainly a yellow screen of death? Some Background: I am working on a simple c# console app that will test servers and services to make sure they are still functioning properly. I assumed since the HttpStatusCodes are enumerated with OK, Moved, InteralServerError, etc... that I could simply do the following.
WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(url); request.Timeout = 10000; HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); if (response == null || response.StatusCode != HttpStatusCode.OK) { // SERVER IS OK return false; } else { // SERVER HAS SOME PROBLEMS return true; }
I found out this morning however that this doesn't work. An ASP.Net application crashed showing a Yellow Screen Of Death and my application didn't seem to mind because the response.StatusCode equaled HttpStatusCode.OK. What am I missing?
I'm using an AsyncFileUploader and I want to check if the uploaded file is of valid type (e.g. jpg, gif, png, etc...) and if not the AsyncFileUploader should be colored in Red (like ErrorbackColor setting to Red)
Is this possible either using Javascript or FileUploader events?
