Question

I am uploading a file through FTP that is 613.6 kb, it is a PDF file. When it arrives on the server it is now 82 KB.

in my Web.Config I have

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="7200" maxRequestLength="2097151" requestValidationMode="2.0"/>

my Code is this

 void UploadFileToFtp(FileInfo file, FtpWebRequest req)
    {
        int buffLength = 2048;

        using (var reader = new BinaryReader(file.OpenRead(), Encoding.Default))

        {
            using (var writer = new BinaryWriter(req.GetRequestStream()))
            {
                while (reader.PeekChar() > 0) writer.Write(reader.ReadBytes(buffLength));
                writer.Flush();
                writer.Close();
            }
            reader.Close();
        }

    } 

I thought it had something to do with the Encoding so I tried ASCII, Default and Unicode none of which made a diffrence. I added the Flush and the Close thinking that was doing it, but no help either. I was getting an error regarding the encoding and once I added that the error went away, but I have no other errors.

Answer 1

Could it be that the file contains zeros and your comparison should be reader.PeekChar() >=0 rather than reader.PeekChar() > 0?
