Uploading Large Files to a Virtual Folder

I have a client/server application which uses webservices functions to upload
large byte arrays to the server and httpwebrequests to download the data
files. I would like to use http to also upload but am lost in how to
implement this.

basic information:
My Url looks like this
"http://144.115.108.xxx/webservice1/myvirtual/videofiles/"

I want to be able to upload a large binary file to my server called
filename.gz and place it in the videofiles folder on my server.

Up to this point, I have used webservice functions to upload data to my
server. Now I am faced with moving very large files ~300mbytes. I am
assuming http is the best way to do such heavy lifting. Can I see a simple
example of how to use httpwebrequest or fiewebrequest to move move a file to
a virtual location?

Thanks,
Fred

Newbie ASP.NET question: Now that I've created an ASP.NET site, how to I get it to my hosting provider? I've developed sites with Dreamweaver MX in the past - with Dreamweaver, it's very easy. The ability to link to the remote site (via FTP) is built into the IDE and all you have to do is click upload. Does Visual Studio have a similar feature? How do most people deploy their sites to a remote server from Visual Studio?

I am having to change several websites that upload files. Our web master has changed the replication tool and that is causing a problem. We have been using the normal httpInputFile object. It works great, as long as you have a direct path ("c:\temp\uploads"), but it does not work well with virtual paths (http:\\AppName\Uploads). The problem is that the physical folder is not under the root app path, it has to be in another physical...

Hi I've got a web app that I've installed on a client computer. Basically it's an intranet, and has a section where staff can upload media files for all to see, so theyre all in a conveinient place. Problem is, they want to store the media files on a diff directory, one that is OUTSIDE of the website itself. They actually want a seperate drive. I've created a virtual directory in IIS to point to that, and files are

I have an asp.net application that works with a SQL server database on server No. 1 but I want to upload files for storage to Server No. 2 that is accessible only from the Internet. If the file storage was on server No. 1, I would specify a physical file path (ChosenDirectory) for storage of the uploaded file but in my case I need to specify a virtual path like http://server2/folder1/. I'm trying to use server.mappath to convert the...

We've got a fairly large legacy ASP site, consiting of one main website with a lot of sub-folders organized in a tree under the main site. We don't use IIS Application/Virtual directories other than the main website root directory (one big application with groups of pages located in sub-folders). I'd guess we have over 200 pages now and it's growing. Now we want to create new pages in ASP.NET 2.0 (we're skipping over 1.x, but I have...

Hi, I have a serious problem. I'm currently developing an application in which the user should upload many files (600-700 xml files). I've searched the web for a while and so far I realized that there's no way to use the HtmlInputFile class to achive the desired effect just because I can't set programatically the property of the class that stores the path of the selected file. My first approach was to write some javascript code which would...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
