  • 0

I have a little problem because on my website I can’t really set permissions for the directories, it just doesn’t work. I use filezilla and when I try to set them to some subdirectories of a default directory of the server that is publicly readable and writable it doesn’t send me an error but when I want to save a file in one of that subdirectories from an asp page I get an error telling that I haven’t got the permission to do so, I tried setting 777, so it should work. Using C# I created a FTP client that allows me to edit those subdirectories (those I couldn’t edit from the asp page). My question is: can I create an asp page that uses a FTP client to access one of those subdirectories????? Thanks!!!

    As I mentioned before you could try WCF and stream files to your server using a web service.

    WCF could be fairly complex; however, there is plenty of tutorials online. You could start with this simple tutorial and adjust it to accomplish what you need. They even provide source code.

    Basically what you need is a web service with one method, say:

    void UploadFile(Stream object)

    Then you need to create a web reference from your client (windows form app for example) by providing the address of your WCF web service. This will automatically create the classes you need to execute the method.

    This site has more info about streaming files:
