Need To Iterate Through A Server Share And List Every File Within Every Folder ?
Jun 17, 2010
I need to iterate through a server share and list every file within every folder and write each file name with all of its attributes into a database table.I assume that using the FileInfo class and all of it's properties (CreationTime, DirectoryName etc etc) is the best way but I have no idea of how to start.I'm starting to create a web app
I've developed a file browser that will browser a different server shared folder. In order to get this working I'm using the unc path (\ServerSharedFolder) to return the files/folders. I've also added the following to my webconfig to get around the security <identity impersonate="true" userName="domainadmin" password="password" />
It's simply a file browser, no create or delete functions will occur. The solution works and what I want to know is that this the safest way to do this? or the best way? I did try to use a virtual directory instead of unc path but asp.net would support this.
I want to upload files to the web servers from the client machines.
Can i upload a file on a network share folder using file upload control?
I would like to create a share folder on a file server sitting next to the web server. If i upload the file from the network share folder instead of uploading it from the client machine does it make any difference?
Will the file be stored in a temporary location before copying to the final destination? Where will be the file stored in this case of uploading it from share folder?
I have to save a fileshare link in a sharepoint list and i want that file to be opened when the link is clicked, the normal sharepoint hyperlink column does not work for me in this case as it embeds the http:// with the url. How can I handle this scenario? the link i want to save is in the format 192.168.1.2myservermyfile.pdf and the text to be shown in the column is "myfile"
I have an ASP.NET MVC application that attempts to read a file in using a filestream and File.OpenRead(). When the path to the file is a share on the same workgroup, and I give access to NETWORK SERVICE for the share, this works perfectly as desired.
However, when the path to the share is a UNC path to a remote share within the LAN, with read permissions open for "Everyone", the "File.OpenRead()" method throws an exception saying "Could not find a part of the path".
In my test cases I'm debugging locally with the ASP.NET MVC app being given a UNC path to the computer that it's actually running on. It's a share on my C drive, being "Shared" with permissions to "Everyone" for read access.
Is there something in IIS that needs to be configured? If I try to impersonate, in this context, the impersonation doesn't matter because NETWORK SERVICE was the user trying to access the files when it worked for a share in the same workgroup.
Is it possible to iterate through an unordered list like the following in codebehind?

I was hoping to iterate through all the li elements of the ul checking whether NavigateUrl is equal to the current url. If it is, I was going to add a CssClass to give it a different appearance.
I think I know how to compare it to the page's url and to how to add the css class. I'm just not quite sure how you iterate through li items using a HTML Generic control.
I have List (Of Report). Report has 90 properties. I dont want write them each and every propertiy to get values for properties. Is there any waht to get propeties values from the List
Ex:
Dim mReports as new List(Of Reports) mReport = GetReports()
For each mReport as Report In mReports 'Here I want get all properties values without writing property names next
I need to temporarily access the network to separate directories. When do it I have access exception. I'm from Ukraine. not sure about the accuracy of the translation. "Logon not produced: Username or password not recognized"
access from my PC to the share directory I have >> Start >> Run >> \network addres
We have an aspx page that displays list of html file & folders from an shared folder. The html files and folder within this shared folder is being maitained by the end users. These are the static html files. When user clicks on any of the file, our .net code open up that file in the new window.
Recently there was an change in the requirement. End user wanted to display some of the data dynamically in the HTML page. We the asked end users to replace the static/hard coded data(eg. City name) within the html files. Find below sample code for your reference
Existing code in html
[Code]....
New code in html
[Code]....
To achieve this our .net code looks for the tag values(State or City) within the lookup table in SQL DB. It then gets the value from the respective tag from DB and replaces the custom tag with the DB value
Eg: <TAG:DYNAMIC value="State"> is being replaced by the value of the State tag in DB.
In order to achieve this we parse the entire html file and then replace the dynamic tags with the DB value. The parsing happens quick in smaller html files but takes almost 10-12 secs to parse bigger files (around 255KBs). We also noticed that even though we increase the number of our custom tags within the bigger files, the code takes same time to open the parsed html file. So it looks like DB hit is not an issue and looks like the issue lies in the parsing of the files. Find below code that parses the html file
[Code]....
On further analysis we noticed the while loop within the above code takes longer to execute. Let me know if there is any better and faster way to parse bigger html files.
i m new to asp.net 3.5 linq and dnt worked much on generics.i m using IEnumerable to return set of results.i m binding this IEnumerable type method directly to datagrid source then it works fine.But i dnt knw how to iterate through this collection??Same way i m using List<String> to return columns like this
I'm searching an answer to this question on the web for 2 weeks unsuccessfully.I'm sure I'm not the only one to wondering about that! I have two web projects MVC2: a FrontOffice and a BackOffice.
The user has to be able to upload some image in the BackOffice, which will be display on the FrontOffice and vice versa. How can I share an image folder between these two projects? Has the folder to be necessary in the solution or can it be somewhere else on the server? My team and I are working with TFS.
I want to create an image folder in which we can write and read from frontoffice and backoffice. But I don't want to have to do a "get latest version" everytime someone is adding an image in the folder. I would like to create a folder on the server we can access from the backoffice AND the frontoffice with reading and writing rights in real time. I'm not sure to be very clear.
As I iterate through a DataTable object, I need to check each of its DataRow objects against the items in a generic string List. I found a blog post using the List's Find method along with a delegate, but whereas that example has a separate class (Person), I'm attempting something like the following using an instance of the string object:
// My definition of the List object. List<string> lstAccountNumbers = new List<string>(); ... // I populate the List via its Add method. ... foreach (DataRow drCurrentRow in dtMyDataTable.Rows) { if (lstAccounts.Find(delegate(string sAccountNumber) { return sAccountNumber == drCurrentRow["AccountNumber"]; }) { Found_DoSomething(); } else { NotFound_DoSomethingElse(); } }
However, with this syntax I'm receiving "Cannot implicitly convert type 'string' to 'bool'" for the if block. what I'm doing wrong and how best to accomplish what I'm trying to do?
In this asp.net web application, users can upload files to the server through a web interface. All the uploaded files are save in a server side folder. If I want to create a new win form desktop client (actually, its a WPF application) which can be used to upload files to that same server side folder as web interface does, how can I share that server side folder with that win form client?
I have confirmed that the same user is logged in both examples, permissions on the parent folder are set correctly, and the logged user has propper right to do this.
If I change the path to a local one, the asmx page can create the folder.Why would this fail when running in the .asmx page?
I have an ASP.NET webservice method that returns a generics list (List'<'Construct>) serialized as JSON, using code such as this:
[WebService(Namespace = "http://tempuri.org/")] [WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)] [ScriptService] public class TestService : System.Web.Services.WebService { [WebMethod] [ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)] public string GetOccupationListJSON(int SOCLevel) { Construct NewConstructList = new ConstructList(); DataContractJsonSerializer serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(ConstructList.GetType()); MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
[Code]....
I assumed (from looking elsewhere) that accessing the JSON data through the index would provide me with access to the underlying object at that index, so that I can then work with it to access its properties. However, when i=0 and I do var Construct = data[i]; I get the character at the i position of the data array ([), and in the next iteration I get the second character ({). So clearly I am accessing the elements of a string array rather than the JSON data object.How do I make sure that the data returned by the webservice gets into proper JSON format, so that I can iterate through the object elements within it?
I am stumped. i want my asp.net website to access a network share folder which is located at say, //hero/superman. I can do it manually.
I've done the following:
1. Included <identity impersonate="true" userName="IUSR_TEST" password="test" /> in my web.config.
2. Set anonymous access in IIS 5.1 with username IUSR_TEST and password: test in the account that is used for anonymous access. Checked integrated windows authentication.
3. Created a profile for IUSR_TEST in computer/management/local users and created the password: test for it. It is a member of guest.
4. Created a user account IUSR_TEST for the network share computer. gave it the same username and password.
4. On the network share computer, I've enabled access for the following people: ASPNET, NETWORK SERVICE, and IUSR_TEST.. all with full potential (for now) for the directory path in question //hero/superman which is really located on: c:herosuperman. I've given it full access.
But when I StreamReader fs = File.OpenText(Server.MapPath(@"\herosuperman est.txt"); I get the error "UnauthorizedAccess Exception". Access to the path \herosuperman est.txt is denied.
So what did I miss, what am I doing wrong. The key thing here are:
the webserver is on a domain. the network share computer is NOT on a domain, it is on it's own workgroup. This workgroup, lets just say is called "villains". So if I have to manually map the network drive to access the files, I must type: /villains/IUSR_Test and password: test to be able to map it on my webserver local computer.
i have a situation where i need to develop a web system where sys. admin can create a shared folder in server and set who can access the shared folder programmatically.
i've manage to find example to create a shared folder from here:[URL]
and i also manage to find example to add user and set folder Security setting from here:[URL]
My problem is how can i add user in the Sharing permission setting since it is a shared folder. Default sharing setting is set to 'everyone'. This mean anyone in my company can browse to the shared file unless i set everyone security setting. I want to remove "everyone" and add users based on the user that i've already add at Security setting.
I have requirement to copy or move file from webserver app folder to local file system folder (user selected). How is it possible in ASP.Net.
On my page i have textbox and browse button and user clicks browse button to select folder and there is Copy/Move button and when clicked the files under webserver folder should be move to the user selected folder. The webserver folder path is available to application.
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 a folder with 200+ pictures. I want to get the names of each of the pictures to the database. would it be easier to import and export the images into the database (I want my webpage to be able to show the images once they are in the database)?
