Hi all,
I'm trying to do what I consider to be a fairly simple task, yet I'm
having a heck of a time getting it to work. I'm trying to upload a
file (without user intervention and a browser) from a vb.net client
(using webclient or httpwebrequest) to a webserver running a cgi script
to store it on the webserver.
I'm not familiar with perl/cgi very well and am really struggling with
it. I kind of got it to partially work with webclient object and using
uploadvalues by sending the data in namedata collection. However, I
was only able to send half the file (according to the messagebox)
before I started getting 408 request timeout errors. (I determined
this by just sending half the file in the string instead of the whole
file contents).
Any help at all would be great. here are some snippets of my basic
flow. It may not be exact, but you can get the feel.
in VB.net:
Dim myQueryStringCo llection As New NameValueCollec tion
myQueryStringCo llection.Add("f ile", "C:\LogFile ")
myQueryStringCo llection.Add("d ata", dataContents) - a string
containing the log file contents
myWebClient = New WebClient
myWebClient.Cre dentials = New NetworkCredenti al("", "")
httpresponsearr ay = myWebClient.Upl oadValues(txtDe st.Text, "POST",
myQueryStringCo llection)
MsgBox(Encoding .ASCII.GetStrin g(httpresponsea rray)) 'show
results
in CGI: (very simple just to see if the script is receiving)
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI;
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "<html><bod y>";
$query = new CGI;
$filepath = $query->param ('file');
$dest = $query->param ('data');
$destfile = "C:\\uploads\te st.txt";
print $dest, "<br>";
print "Your file ($destfile) has been successfully uploaded.","<br >";
print "</body></html>";
Any ideas what is wrong, are there better ways to do this ? If someone
has already done this and has some code they would share, that would be
SOOOOO great.

You can find that how to implement uploading files in RFC-1867 and does not

I don't want something form based though because this will be executing
behind the scenes in the background of the app.

There is no such monster called perl/cgi. There is the Perl language and
the CGI protocol. Failing to partition the problem leads to wasted time.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI;
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "<html><bod y>";
$query = new CGI;
$filepath = $query->param ('file');
$dest = $query->param ('data');
$destfile = "C:\\uploads\te st.txt";

Yes, someone has already done it. The correct ways to submit the upload, as
well as to process it are explained in the CGI.pm documentation.

Hi there.
I've spent the weekend getting ever more frustrated, trying to get an
upload file function working on a website.
The site is hosted by a company called oneandone. They're using PHP 4.2.

the temp folder, but I don't have access to the .ini settings.
I'm pretty sure it's possible, because I've got MyPHPAdmin running, and

Good afternoon.
The entire task that I'm trying to achieve is to allow a user to browse and
upload multiple files simultaneously, hiding the Browse button of <input>
tags of type="file" and replacing it with a button of my own background
color and text.
The file paths I'd like displayed in a textarea and then the files uploaded
at once.

You may be wondering why you would want to put your files “into” the database, rather than just onto the file-system. Well, most of the time, you wouldn’t.
In situations where your PHP application needs to store entire files, the preferred method is to save the file onto the server’s file-system, and store the physical location of the file in your database. This is generally considered to be the easiest and fastest way to store files.

MS won't seem to let me reply to my old post, so I created a new one.
The error occurs in all browsers. It's definitely a server issue, not client.
The server is not proxied in any way.
I tried uploading the files on the server and experienced the same issues as
I get on any other computer.
Thanks in advance for your help.
