[kamlesh20J]

Hello, I am trying to use HttpWebRequest to send some POST
data
I have accomplished this using:

HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)
WebRequest.Create("http://mysite.com/index.php");
req.Method = "POST";
req.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
string postData = "login=value1&pwd=value2&file=filename"
req.ContentLength = postData.Length;

StreamWriter stOut = new
StreamWriter(req.GetRequestStream(),
System.Text.Encoding.ASCII);
stOut.Write(postData);
stOut.Close();

but i am getting response Upload problem but when i am uploading file using html Form-based File Upload then file is uploading it is showing upload success.

System.Net.HttpWebResponse objWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
System.IO.StreamReader objStreamReader = new System.IO.StreamReader(objWebResponse.GetResponseS tream());
string strResponse = objStreamReader.ReadToEnd().Trim();
objStreamReader.Close();

Now then, Where exactly are you reading in the contents of the file you wish to upload and sending that? I do not see it in the code provided, it appears you do not do it at all.

i am sending name of the file in strFileName. Do i need to send byte array of the file

Yes, that is how it works. You need do some kinda of content disposition heading too I think which could be tricky.
I recomend searching for a quick example on the web, there should be plenty.
