ftp from ASP.Net 2.0

[Guest]

I believe that I have spent days looking for a "HOW TO" on developing an ftp
process from an ASP.net 2.0 page that utilizes a "FileUpLoad" control.

Can I not just call the "SaveAS"(ftp_site, username, password + filename)
method? If I can't do this someone please point me in the direction of how
this task can get done.

Is there more to it? I don't know... that is why I am posting a call for help.

Try :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.ftpwebrequest(VS.80).aspx
(FtpWebRequest)

Just to make sure, FTP doesn't have anything to do with the FileUpload
control : the file will uploaded to the server and then the server will save
the file to some other server using FTP.

Thank you Juan for the link.
I received this error at the requeststream = uploadrequest.getstream
"ex.Message = "The requested URI is invalid for this FTP command."

This is how I populated the upload sub
If Me.File1.Value <> "" Then
Try
Upload(Me.File1.Value, "ftp://new file server.com/")
Catch ex As Exception
Me.txtSubmittedFile.Text = "Error: " & ex.Message.ToString
End Try
End If
If I need to pass the username and password would that cause the error?

If you need to pass a username and password, you can pass them with :

WebClient request = new WebClient();
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential ("username", "password");

To extend this process, is it possible to loop through the reader(in the list
portion of the FTPSample kit) to create something like a treeview, that would
list the folders and files on an FTP server, should they want to download a
file from the server to their local machines?

Please point me to the next level.

You'll find all the info you need to build your client at :

http://dotnet.mvps.org/dotnet/faqs/?id=ftp&lang=en

There's a fairly good sample at :
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;EN-US;832679

There's a basic client sample at :

Another free sample is at :

Enjoy!

Juan, Using the Microsoft link example, I run into an issue on the "Upload"
where the "SendCommand("PASV")". The "ReadLine" function errors out on the
following
line
m_iBytes = m_objClientSocket.Receive(m_aBuffer, m_aBuffer.Length, 0)
and returns a error of "An unknown, invalid, or unsupported option or level
was specified in getsocketopt or setsocketopt call"

Any idea what this is about? I am running this on an ASP.net 2.0 form that
just has a button to start this program.

solved

hi i solved that problem.. had the same...

so:

instead of:
'Convert the byte array back into a string.
roundtrip = [unicode].GetString(fromEncrypt)

'Display the original data and the decrypted data.
Return roundtrip

do like this;
'Convert the byte array back into a string.

Dim testStr() As Char = [unicode].GetChars(fromEncrypt)
For i As Integer = 0 To testStr.Length
If Not testStr(i) = Nothing Then
roundtrip = roundtrip + testStr(i)
Else
Exit For
End If
Next i

'Display the original data and the decrypted data.
Return roundtrip


problem was that Byte vas 14 long but actualy u need only like 12 and getString returnen: "pass
(...yah with no quote at the end whitch hang up the pasv send function)


btw: took me all day to figure out the mistake...
