IO error 2038 in ASP.NET 3.5 environment

victorvanhalen

Hey guys,

From looking around on the web, I'm really impressed with the elegance of your file upload solution and look forward to have it working on my site. However, I have not been successful yet in my implementation, as I keep getting IO Error 2038 when trying to upload files.

I setup a very basic ASP.NET 3.5 web application in the hopes of removing any stuff that could be inadvertently messing up with the Uploadfiy code, but still no luck. Here's the rundown:

Environment: Windows Vista x64
IDE: Visual Studio 2008 SP1
Uploadify version: 1.6.2
.NET Version: 3.5 SP1
Host: Visual Studio's debug host / also tried IIS 7 that comes with Windows Vista - had the same problem.

Here's the full code for my default.aspx:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="TestApp._Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

$(document).ready(function() {
$('#fileUpload').fileUpload({
'uploader': 'Scripts/Uploadify/uploader.swf',
'script': 'Scripts/Uploadify/upload.ashx',
'folder': 'Songs',
'cancelImg': 'Scripts/Uploadify/cancel.png',
'multi': false,
'displayData': 'speed',
'onError': function (a, b, c, d) {
if (d.status == 404)
alert('Could not find upload script. Use a path relative to: '+'<?= getcwd() ?>');
else if (d.type === "HTTP")
alert('error '+d.type+": "+d.status);
else if (d.type ==="File Size")
alert(c.name+' '+d.type+' Limit: '+Math.round(d.sizeLimit/1024)+'KB');
else
alert('error '+d.type+": "+d.text);
}
});
});

You have a problem with your javascript

Start Upload | Clear Queue

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's my code for the upload.ashx handler:

public class Upload : IHttpHandler
{
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
HttpPostedFile oFile = context.Request.Files["Filedata"];
string sDirectory = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(@context.Request["folder"]);
oFile.SaveAs(sDirectory + oFile.FileName);
if (!Directory.Exists(sDirectory)) Directory.CreateDirectory(sDirectory);
context.Response.Write("1");
}
public bool IsReusable
{
get { return false; }
}
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For what it's worth, the default.aspx file is at the same level as the Scripts folder. Any clues on what I'm doing wrong? Any help is immensely appreciated!

NOTE: Keep in mind that with ASP hosting, by default an ASP/ASP.NET script does not have write access to the root directory or subdirectories of a hosting account. If you want to specify write access to the root directory or a subdirectory, you must define write access to that directory through the FTP File Manager option in your hosting account settings. You can also use the IIS Settings to set up a "Virtual Root" in IIS by selecting the Set Application Root option.
