The application is in NET 20 using vs.2005 and FLEX that was originally in C# which I converted to VB. This whole thing started because a client wanted upload progress indicator for file uploads. It seems to happen after the file is uploaded. How asp.net works is it will cache the file while uploading and then when the full file is uploaded it then seems to copy to the upload Directory. It is at this time that it tosses the error. In firefox it gives a bit more details.
Here is what happens. Select a file to upload, File uploads and on 100% the first error box appears:
There has been an I/O Error: Error #2038: File I/O Error. URL: http://faroutcomputers/Upload.axd?
Then you click okay and the second one shows up:
There has been an HTTP Error: status code 500
Oh and another interesting thing. If I upload with IE7 I get the two errors but the file uploads and is present in the upload directory. If I upload with firefox I get the same two errors but the file does not appear in the upload directory and isn't completed.

Anyone know why this is happening?
Can you post some of the code where the error is occurring?
Hi,
Based on my understanding, when you use the FileUpload control to upload the file in your asp.net application, you get the error message above. If I have misunderstood you, please feel free to let me know.
Base on the exception message, the problem is that the HttpPostedFile.SaveAs method doesn't accept the file path that you passed.
To better understand your issue, could you please confirm the following information:
Please make sure that the path we pass is correct. We can insert the breakpoint to check.
Okay the application works FINE in IE.
Here is what happens with FIREFOX.
Select a file to upload, File uploads and on 100% the first error box appears:

Anyone know why I get an error in Firefox and IE works like a charm?
Session("FtpFolder") has a value of"C:\CommercialWebsites\mbelcher\"
and this is also shown in the trace info as being the vlaue of the session variable. IE works no issues but Firefox says no.... also Safari on a mac has the same errors as firefox.

Thanks for your response.
As far as I know, the FileUpload works differently in the IE and FireFox. For example, FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName returns full path in the IE, but returns file name in the FireFox. So please check the uploadFile.FileName in the IE and FireFox. We can only get the file name with System.IO.Path.GetFileName method, such asSystem.IO.Path.GetFileName( FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName );
I hope this helps.
So, in other words, your session variable is not set in Firefox. Is this
because you have disabled cookies in Firefox? Or are blocking them for that
site? I checked and firefox was not blocking cookies but for some reason it wasn't getting the session information. I changed to cookeless and it works fine now in all browsers. There is another issue on a different server that I put the application on. Of course it works fine here on my development server but not on the published one. My server is a development server and is on a machine to itself and I do not work off of it. It hosts many websites all of which work fine viewed form here or out on the net. |
Same exact Application, but different servers. Both are windows 2003 servers.
My site:http://faroutcomputers.dyndns.biz:8083/YoyoStudiosUploader2/ The application works fine here on all browsers and images are fine
Site with issues:http://upload.yoyostudios.com – Pictures missing very strange. Haven't seen this issue before.
