Use A Wildcard In The Uri Of An FtpWebRequest To Get File Date?

Oct 14, 2009

I am working on an application in vb.net to move files back and forth between a client and a ftp server. We will be creating, deleting, and renaming temporary files during our update process.I want to check for the existence of a temp file before I begin an upload process to keep different users from trying to update the same file at the same time. I have a method (below) to check if the FTP file exists (using ContentLength), but I want to be able to pass in a string with a wildcard such as:

FileServer.FtpFileExists("MyTestFile.*.txt") Can I use a wild card with a FtpWebRequest object? What about a regular expression? Or should I pull down the directory(between 200-500 files) and iterate through that list on the client side trying to match with a regex/widcard? 'Find if File exists from FTP Server for File specified Private Function FtpFileExists(ByVal RemotePath

If yes, how to create the server side application

i have written a small app that:-Periodically captures a portion of a screen to jpeg file-Uploads this file to ftp serverAt first i used My.Computer.Network.UploadFileand it worked like a charm.

Communications :: Using FtpWebRequest - Error 550 No Such File Or Directory Or Access Denied

Nov 29, 2008

I am currently using the below code to upload a file and display progress. It works fine except there are a few things I would like to do differently.

I am using the main FTP account for my website which has access to all of my files. I set up a different FTP login to use that only has access to a specific folder, but when I try to use it I get: Error 550 No such file or directory or access denied.

This FTP account allows access to: mywebsite.com/upload/users/ only If strFTPAddress = mywebsite.com/upload/users/ I get error 550, I've tried a few other things too and it's told me that it's an invalid URI

Basically what I want to know is if and how I might be able to connect using my second FTP account so that I only have access to the upload/users/ directory.

FtpWebRequest.GetRequestStream Hang Up And Fails?

Jul 30, 2011

I have wrote a web service, in a nutshell it uses openpop to get email messages does stuff with the content to insert into databases and saves attachments which are images. That works fine when i save images locally, it does exactley what it is suppose to. Now an added requirment was to save images to an FTP directory, so i can create my folders dynamically (they are created based upon timestamp) and that works well. My problem comes from when i try to save them to the ftp. Yes my user name and password are correct,otherwise i wouldn't be creating the directory.

Private Sub UploadFile(ByVal fileToSave As FileInfo, ByVal path As String)
Dim UploadRequest As FtpWebRequest = DirectCast(WebRequest.Create("ftp://UserName:Passowrd@999.99.999.9" & path),

Buffering Using Ftpwebrequest - Allows Users To Login To The System

Mar 15, 2011

This will be my first post on this site, so I thought I would make it a doozy. I have an web application on our site at work that allows users to login to the system, and submit filings for dockets that our state agency governs. Without getting to involve with what that means, they basically upload mostly .pdf files, but there are others that are acceptable to upload as well. The current system that is being used, uses a simple FileUpload and saving it to a folder on the d: drive of the webserver. I ran into a problem that with anyone outside the building/network, the upload is extremely slow and seems to be limited files no larger than about 1.4MB. There have been a few cases where larger file have made it through, but those ar few and far between. I've tried a couple different 3rd party components, but seem to run into the same limits. So, I install the FTP server on the box with the IIS and am trying to go the FTP route using ftpwebrequest.

Below is what I have put together so far:

Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO

Partial Class _Default

[CODE]...

This seems to work as it is at the moment, but I know it has a long way to go for catch exeptions, speeding it up...

1.) The first problem I have run into is if you try to upload to large a file, you get Out of memory error. I'm needing to change the buffer so that it is buffering chunks instead of the entire file. I've googled over and over again and seem to find several good options in C#, but can't seem to convert them to VB. So, could some one give me some idea how to take what I have and change the buffering to use smaller chunks.

2.) I need to catch an empty UploadFile field.

3.) I will eventually be changing this so that it handle multiple file uploads like my current system uses. (Did I mention that I'm new to the ASP.NET and have been programming in .ASP)

4.) As you will notice from my list of acceptable file types, I might have a problem with some needing to be upload as Binary and some not. So I'm going to have to come up with a way to test and change the Requested.UseBinary = False as needed.

I'm sure that I'll find other items as I progress or the big bosses will find other things that they want to add, but for now.... I know that given enough time, I will get all of these items worked out.

By the way, we have a network adminstrator that leave a lot to be desired and most IIS and now FTP I'm having to learn, implement and configure. I'm wondering if there is anything else that could be causing these limits in file size. Since I've tried 4 completely different forms of uploads and they all seem to run into the same limits, I thought there might be something in a router, firewall, server configuration.... that I might need to look into as well.

VS 2010 FtpWebRequest - Check Directory Exists?

Oct 26, 2010

I'm having trouble finding a reliable method to check if a directory (folder) exists on an FTP server. I want to create new directories and then upload files into them but thought it best to check if the directory already exists. Although attmepting to create a directory that already exists does not seem to cause any errors, it does waste a bit of time.

This code reliably checks if a FILE exists:

[code...]

I have attempted to modify this with ListDirectory in place of GetDateTimestamp (to check if a directory exists) but it seems no exception is thrown whether the directory exists or not. I've done lots of Googling but haven't found a satisfactory answer.

Access To A Server File Share To Move A File?

Apr 18, 2012

Im am writing a simple console app that will check and see that a file exists and then if does it will copy the file and move/paste the file into a new location. The file I'm checking exists as a file share on a server and I am wanting to move the file to a folder on a local machines C drive.

I'm working from my machine which is on the domain where the file exists and I'm logged in and have full admin rights on the domain. I can access the file share but when I run my app it gives an error saying access to to the file path is denied. My question is even if I'm on the network do I still need to provide username and password credentials to make this connection? If so how do I do this?

Impersonation - File.Copy / File.Move With Different Credentials

Apr 2, 2009

Ideally I'd like to be able to copy/move between an accessible folder on my local drive and a network share that I don't have permission to access (but the application would). I am using impersonation to give me access to the files in the network share but using System.IO File.Move or File.Copy forces me to use the same credentials for each location. Is there a way around this?

FtpWebRequest/FtpWebResponse - The Underlying Connection Was Closed: An Unexpected Error Occurred On A Receive

I'm creating a program (Which will eventually be a service) which loops a section of code which downloads files from a variety of FTP servers.All files are succesfully downloaded on the first iteration, however after this the download fails with the following error..."The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive."Curiously, the error does not occur if the loop only downloads the same file from the same Ftp server.
