View 2 RepliesI'm trying to download multiple files based on what a user has selected on a formI have multiple checkboxes in place, so If a user would select Checkboxes 1,3,4 I would want the webclient to download files 1.txt, 3.txt, 4.txt.The WebClient method is causing a "WebClient does not support concurrent I/O operations." error.
If chk1.Checked Then

I've just switched my code over that downloads data as bytes to use a WebClient. I add a header saying I will accept GZip and the site I'm downloading from sends me the data compressed. The problem is, how can I check to make sure it is compressed data before attempting to decompress it? It was much simpler when I was using a Web Request to check the response headers, but I'm having a little trouble checking the reponse headers with a WebClient. Does anybody out there accept compression with a WebClient?

System.Exception: Transaction (Process ID xx) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim.
I suspect this
Dim webc As New WebClient
webc.DownloadFile(remotexml, targetxml)

Then i am using the targetxml right after that:
Dim xmldoc As New XmlDocument
xmldoc.Load(targetxml)
etc.
It seems that xml file is locked by the first process (WebClient).

View 3 RepliesI'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?
I am uploading a file from a C# application to an ASP.Net website, both written by me so I have access to the code.But, it is working for a text file (1KB) but not for a MOV file (77MB).
In both cases, I am using UploadProgressChanged to get the progress. The TXT file goes to 100% while the MOV file goes only till 50%. When done, I only find the TXT file saved on the server but not the MOV file.
Why is this happening? How can I get it to work?

I seem to remember reading the MSDN somewhere that there was another method to download files from URIs other than using the webclient object. I'm trying to download some raw php files but every time I use the webclient object the server interprets them as an HTTP request and instead serves the default web page that the php file builds and not the php code itself.

View 10 RepliesI need to parse a Unix text file so, I am using System.Net.WebClient to ftp into a Unix server then using the .DownloadFile() method to get the text file, but its coming in with the Unix end line ""; so is there a way to convert that to windows format while doing the DownloadFile method? I do re-read it after and fix it, I am just looking for a better way.
Or is there an alternate such as instead of a DownloadFile, and the two other steps above can I just read it into an array right off the Unix server?? If so then what method would I use?
