View 1 RepliesScenario: I want to develop an application.The application should be able to connect to my remote server and download data to the local disk , while downloading it should check for new files and only download the new ones simultaneously creating the required(new) folders.
Problem: I have no idea how to compare the files in the server with the ones in the local disk.How to download only the new files from the server to the local disk?
What am thinking?: I want to sync the files in the local machine with the ones in the server. I am planning to use rsync for syncing but i have no idea how to use it with ASP.NET.
Clickonce deployment 'Publish succeeded,' however not files are uploaded to the server, and the deployment webpage does not start, even though 'automatically generate deployment web page after every publish' is enabled.The problem began after copied the application from running on 'XP' and tried to publish from vista.
View 1 RepliesThis is the situation: i have the central location with the main computer,and 14 distanced locations connected in VPN and often we need to update program manually (on distanced locations) by overwriting the existing .dll-s of the program and this is pain in the ass to connect remotely to 14 locations and on each workstation overwrite the .dll files so i want to create application which is going to be installed on each WS and by running this app it will check the program folder on central computer and if there is any file with newer version then existing one on the WS it will copy it from central computer and overwrite the old file/s on WS. It is a small app with two buttons and progress bar but the main thing is the Update now button because i dont�t know which commands it should commit.
View 22 RepliesI have a webserver and I upload files to my webserver from time to time. I have an ftp account which points to public_html that is main directory.
I though why give full access so I created another ftp account (e.g. test) which points to a specific folder. Now when I try to upload a file using test it fails.
For e.g.
the following code works:
My.Computer.Network.UploadFile("d:ok.txt", "ftp://mysite.com/Test/okay.txt", "main@mysite.com", "mainpw")
- this is because this a/c has access to root folder of website
now following code gives error -
My.Computer.Network.UploadFile("d:ok.txt", "ftp://mysite.com/Test/okay.txt", "test@mysite.com", "testpw")
The remote server returned an error: (550) File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access).
Well the ftp account test has been given access to a specific folder with the name "Test". So it should at least upload to that folder.
But if I use ftp client (like filezilla) then it works.
I had my page, capturing the users network name: company user, but I never had to authenticate with windows.All of a sudden, I am getting prompted to log into the webserver.
[Code]...
I have Integrated Windows authentication set up in the Authentication Methods from Directory Security.
The login prompt does not happen when I first open up the page, it happens when I am trying to do updates (which is to a SQL table), but I don't see how this would relate. But trying to give all the detail.

Is there a way i can read a text file without downloading say at [URL] and show that textfile data in a text box or label? Also, can i get it to download say ZIP files from the site and unpack it? Or can i only download and you have to manually unzip it? Im pretty sure ive seen an unzip function somewhere.

Reason for this is I would like other people to be able to connect to this database (the winforms app would have screens for creating and managing accounts, etc) without worrying about whether their ISP would block the DB port(s) it would just work.

I am by no means a programmer, but I was recently tasked with moving our website to a new server, since the website manager quit. The Visual Studio solution was written in 2008. I can compile and run the solution, so I'm sure it's working just fine. But every time I try to publish the solution, either to FTP or to my local hard drive, the .asp webpages get deployed to a sub directory, where on the live site, they are in the root.

View 2 RepliesI am using an webservice to update my dataset and have a picture box to show an processing image i.e. a gif showing a progress bar and the words processing. My prob. is the gif stops animation as soon as the control goes to the webserver. I have done this.
Timer1.Enabled = True
Timer1_Tick(Nothing, Nothing)
picServer.Refresh()
GetMasterData()
In the timer1_tick even too I have tried picserver.refresh (picserver is the picture box). Getmasterdata is the process where the data is returned from the web service and as the control goes to the web service it somehow stops the process of the gif. It takes about 5 mins to popup the data from the webservice this code is in the form load event of the main form.
I need to send data back to my Apache web server so it can be updated in it's MySQL database, I've looked at NuSOAP as it's written in PHP but man that's hard. I'm lost, is there a more simply way to send it back? even to call a webpage and send data into it?
View 4 RepliesI'm successfully communicating string data to and from with a webserver using the System.Net.WebClient and the Upload method. Now I'd like to be able to upload files from my local app to this webserver. I get that it's probably very similar to what I'm doing with the string data, but I've not done anything with files that aren't ascii based so am hesitant as where to begin. I don't want to corrupt the file.
