File upload/download from database. Download appends aspx page to end of file

R

Ryan Taylor

Hello.

I am trying to upload a file and save it in a Sql Server 2000 database. This
seems to be working fine. However, when I download the file from SQL Server,
it appears that the page that is downloading this file is being appended to
the end of the file. So I am accidently modifiying every file that is placed
in the database. What follows is my code for uploading and downloading a
file, minus the sql code to insert/retrieve the data into/from the database.
Does anyone see what might be wrong? Thanks in advance.

// uploading a file
HttpPostedFile file = btnAttachFile.PostedFile;
string fileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(file.FileName);
string mimeType = file.ContentType;
int fileSize = file.ContentLength;
byte[] fileData = new byte[fileSize];
file.InputStream.Read(fileData, 0, fileSize);

int questionId = Convert.ToInt32(Request.Params["qId"]);
int sessionId = Convert.ToInt32(Request.Params["sId"]);
string btnAttach = Request.Params["btnAttach"];

if(QstnrSql.UpdateAttachment(authUser, questionId, sessionId, fileName,
mimeType, ref fileData))
{
// success
}

// downloading a file
byte[] buffer = null;
string attachmentFileName = "";
string attachmentMimeType = "";
if(QstnrSql.DownloadAttachment(authUser, questionId, sessionId, out buffer,
out attachmentFileName, out attachmentMimeType))
{
// Convert the content to application/pdf
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = attachmentMimeType;
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "Attachment; Filename=\"" +
attachmentFileName +"\"");
Response.BinaryWrite(buffer);
Response.Flush();
}
