I'm trying to force a large (200+ MB) file to download that's on a remote server. The problem is that I can't use the "WriteFile()" function, since I'm not using a virtual path. Then, when I try:

I'm trying to download remote file using C# (ASP.NET). The problem is when I browse to the file download URL - it downloads perfectly. When I try the WebClient.DownloadData(url) I get "no data to show" response.
If I browse using the built-in VS2010 browser I still get this "error" message.
The file link is: [URL](CSV file)

I tried this code by inputting the ftp address as ftp//: and the correct username and password and I get the following error
"Unable to connect to the remote server" on line :
FtpWebResponse Response = (FtpWebResponse)Request.GetResponse();I tired this on my ftp server provided by a hosting service and an anonymous ftp located at 193.166.120.5 ?
Note: I was able to connect to both of these ftp through filezilla, via a webbrowser, and through windows command line.

I have deployed my site in Win 2003 server. In this, it copies file from Another server and copies it in local. It is working with my local computer, but not in the server i have deployed. I hope access credentials may be the first reason. But are there any other reasons for this.

filetoread = Server.MapPath("\servernamesharefile.csv")
filestream = File.OpenText(filetoread)
readcontents = filestream.ReadToEnd()
It works fine if I put the file in the local directory and use "filetoread = Server.MapPath("file.csv")", but won't do it over the UNC path.I'm guessing the problem is security related but can't find any info related to it, do I need to somehow specify a username/password somewhere ?

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 have an interesting challenge. My application uses a third party's services and one of the functions is to upload video files to Amazon S3. The current solution I've implemented uses a simple form with a POST action set to a URL on Amazon's system. The
issue I have is that because the form posts to Amazon, I have no way of doing any type validations before the user clicks to upload the file i.e. checking file type, file size, etc.
However, I really do NOT want to set up my logic so that the file is first uploaded to my server then to Amazon because these are huge files and we'll end up using costly bandwidth on both ends -- our server and Amazon S3.
P.S. To be perfectly honest, I'm not that pleased with the current solution where it's a simple HTML form with a simple post to Amazon. However, because Amazon is so picky about all the hidden fields in my asp.net page, I had to strip everything off the
page -- including form runat"server" because the minute I have this, I end up with a hidden field for ViewState -- even if I completely turn off ViewState. There's always something left as a hidden field and Amazon was generating an error because of this.
Ideally, I'd love to be able to do an HttpWebRequest in code behind so that I can have the functions of a web form back and do some pre-upload work but I'm not sure how to upload the file to a remote destination without putting the file on my server first.

I'm using an .ashx handler to retrieve an image file... It queries a local database, which retrieves the URL of an image which is hosted on Amazon S3.
But I can't use context.response.write(AmazonS3URL) because it returns the error '...is not a virtual path'.
Can context.response.write only return files that are on the local machine? Or is there another function to call remote files?
