Question

I have a list (list1) with the file names:

C:\\Work\\Server1\\CSRegWeb\\Transform\\Faq.xslt
C:\\Work\\Server1\\CSRegWeb\\Content\\Axxess.xml
C:\\Work\\Server1\\CSRegWeb\\kleenex.aspx
C:\\Work\\Server1\\CSRegWeb\\Content\\dell.xml

I need to copy these files to another server (with the same folder structure), which is called server2. So the folder locations are:

C:\\Work\\Server2\\CSRegWeb\\Transform\\Faq.xslt
C:\\Work\\Server2\\CSRegWeb\\Content\\Axxess.xml
C:\\Work\\Server2\\CSRegWeb\\kleenex.aspx
C:\\Work\\Server2\\CSRegWeb\\Content\\dell.xml

I need to copy over the files (which can be copy or overwrite).
(For now they are server1 & server2, the server names can change).
Any help would be appreciated.

Here is the code I have:

DESTINATION_PROJECT_ROOT = "C:\\Work\\Server2"
projectName = "CSRegWeb"

string dest = DESTINATION_PROJECT_ROOT + "\\" + projectName + "\\" ;
foreach (FileInfo k in List1)
{
    foreach (FileInfo j in List2)
    {
        if (k.Name == j.Name && k.Directory.Name == j.Directory.Name)
        {
             File.Copy(k.FullName, dest , true);
             break;
        }
    }
}

This only replaces the modified files.

Answer 1

I don’t think you can access it that way. Try it this way instead:

string path = @"\\Server2\CSRegWeb\Transform\Faq.xslt";

EDIT

Or if you’re storing it in web.config, try this:

<appSettings>
   <add key="CopyToLocation" value="\\Server2" />    
</appSettings>
