UploadFile

[Ching-Lung]

Hi,

UploadFile() is always throwing WebException: "The remote
server returned an error: (405) Method Not Allowed."

Is there any setting that I miss? IIS setting?

Please help, thanks!

Re: UploadFile

Does your form tag look something like this?

<FORM id="Form1" method="post" encType="multip art/form-data" runat="server">

Re: UploadFile

you need to add this:

encType="multip art/form-data"

to the form tag.

Re: UploadFile

Hi,

I've tried adding encType="multip art/form-data" it doesn't
throw the 405 web exception but my <input type=file>
doesn't work. For some reason, <input type=file> is
an "undefined" object.

Any idea?

I guess that is WebClient.Uploa dFile(). Well, if you don't specify the
HTTP verb, it will post the file. In that case, there must be some web
application handling the file upload -- which seems not to be case here.

For a "pure" (no web app) HTTP file upload, try HTTP PUT:

string url = "http://host/vdir/test.txt";
WebClient client = new WebClient();
byte[] response = client.UploadFi le(url, "PUT", @"C:\temp\test. txt");

This requires write permissions on the virtual directory "vdir".
