C# - WebClient.DownloadFileAsync - Download Files One At A Time?
Jan 11, 2010
I am using the code below to download multiple attachments from a TFS server:
[code]....
However, there are a couple of problems with this approach:
The Thread.Sleep() is locking up my Form. I still need to make my own Thread or use BackgroundWorker. (I would like to avoid this as much as possible)The DownloadFileCompleted event is being triggered after ALL files has been downloaded. I don't know if this is a side-effect of using
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
Is there a better approach to download files one at a time using WebClient.DownloadFileAsync?

I am downloading a file from a remote location to my local machine. The paths I am using are saved in web.config and are in following format:
<add key="FileFolder" value="Files/"/>
<add key="LocalFileFolder" value="D:REAL" />
the code I am using to download is:
CreateDirectoryIfDoesNotExist();
WebClient webClient = new WebClient(); [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?

I'm trying to use a java servlet in a 3rd party tool's web interface (CA service desk) to invoke it's download file functionality using a webclient in vb.net. The trouble is the text stream from response is markup and not the acutual text file stream.
It's like the page is redirecting to another page which actually presents the file for downloading. I have no idea what the redirected page URL is.
Is there a way I can process this redirected page in order to get at the download using a system.net.webclient?

At one point this was working, but somewhere something happened. What I am trying to do is simply download a page from our local site. I keep getting the 401 unauthorized.
I have tried NetworkCredential("user", "password", "domain")
and
CredentialCache cc = new CredentialCache();
cc.Add(new Uri("http://site/"), "Windows", new System.Net.NetworkCredential("user", "password", "domain"));
but that didnt work . We are using Windows authentication with no anonymous access.
Here is what was once working:
WebClient wc = new WebClient();
string FileName = Server.MapPath(\App_Data\rpt.htm);
wc.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
wc.DownloadFile("http://site/Report.aspx?OrderNum=7534&Type=inv&BE=1", FileName);

I am using webclient object to download a file to a windows folder from a sharepoint document library. The credentials I am passing to the webclient object are that of site collection administrator. everything works fine while i test it by uploading a file to the document library. But since the document library is email enabled; when an email is received the file is not transferred to the windows folder. i have put some workflow history events to see which user account is used when the email is received. the user account shown is the network service account. I have given write permissions on the folder to all the users; Everyone, Network service, the site collection administrator user etc. but still i cant figure out what is the problem.

I have an objective to transfer some files which can be pdf, jpg and xml from one location to another. I am creating a handler based API for that. What could be the best approach for doing it? Should i return a byte array so that the client can pick the byte array and convert it back to file? Also the max file size I need to handle is 18 MB, so i have to make sure that the sizes are properly handled. Should I do an asynchronous transfer for that?

downloading files from an FTP server. The FTP server produces new files from time to time. so my application needs to Download only the "NEW" files and disregard what i have already downloaded previously. I have a time stamp on when was the last download time. I Using FtpWebRequest, WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectory, WebRequestMethods.Ftp.GetDateTimestamp. The problem is the ListDirectory gives me all the List in the FTP directory and i have to loop all the way down starting again from the start to the last file and check it with my last time stamp to DL the NEW files another problem is the FTP Directory contains 30,000 Files so it would take long until ill find the my last download time to start again on that point..

I'm working on a website that streams audio files for the user from a directory on the server machine. How do I protect the audio files from users being able to navigate to the folder and just downloading them locally, but still provide them access to stream them? If I set permissions on the folder via IIS, is there a level that I can set so that the server can stream but not allow anonymous access?I'm sure there is a tutorial or other thread about this out there, it's just hard to search for this specific issue. Any help or a simple link to another thread/tutorial

I developed a datagrid in my aspx page which was to show all the files present (with details) in a particular directory on my webserver. The column containing the name of the file in the datagrid is a hyperlink and when you click on it you could view or download the file.
Everything works great. When I click on the file name, it either opens up the file in browser or asks me to save it except the fact that when I click on a file name with extension .msg (outlook message file) it says - The Page Cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable..
The files are very well present there in the directory! Moreover, same everything was working absolutely fine (even the .msg messages) in my local system during the application development.
I dont know if sending the code makes sense in this situation - because code is correct and is working as it should be. It looks more of an issue with internet explorer or probably somerthing with Production web server configuration.
Anyways the code for aspx and .cs files are -
ASPX - PAGE CODE
<asp:DataGrid runat="server" id="articleList" Font-Name="Verdana"

in my project i have a folder containing N number of files. I need a functionality that the page should have links for all those files so that client can download those files.
For this i have dynamically created Link Buttons and linked each file with each link Button.
The Code is as
string filePath = Request.PhysicalPath.Substring(0, Request.PhysicalPath.LastIndexOf("\"));
filePath = filePath.Substring(0, filePath.LastIndexOf("\"));
filePath = filePath.Substring(0, filePath.LastIndexOf("\")) + "\Export";
string[] files = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(filePath);
[Code]...
But the problem is that, when i am trying to download this:
the file is downloading in HTML format, moreover the file name of downloaded file becomes same to my Code file name where as i want the actual name. the downloaded file have the actual data but it also contains the html code to the page on which this links are coming

I need a program that would download all csv files from an sftp location. I've the sftp host IP, user name, password and port details of the sftp location. I am able to login through Filezilla. But as I need to login programmatically, so that I can get a list of all files in the folder.
When the code works fine for a ftp request, it doesn't for an sftp request. Given below is my code to connect to the ftp uri.
[Code]....
My system admin says that there is no uri that could be given for sftp sites at all. Now, how can I go about this? Is there any third party tool available for this?
