Hi folks,
I need to upload a large file say 30 MB to my server (physical location).
For this i want to use streams... with out database support.
Any help... Thanks in advance

Have a google, there's loads of examples for uploading files and saving them to disk.
In ASP.net, you'll have to change the default maxRequestLength in the HttpRuntime tag in the web.config to permit you to upload very large files.

Hey thanks for responding...
Yes i tried with HTTPREQUEST tag in web.config file.. but i don't want to use it as it efects my performance. I want to use streams.

OK - so you're saying you have absolutely no idea what ASP.NET is, or what it does ? I suggest you buy a basic book, and read it.

It was clearly understood if someone reads your post.

Do you know what is a stream? And can you tell me how it is related with ASP.NET uploads?

No, actually, that is not true. This article is about streaming files, which basically means that the input stream is stuffed into the DB in chunks, not all in one go. It has NOTHING to do with streams, excepting that a stream is used. You meant to ask about streaming files, not using streams. And, you have this article, so why are you asking us ?

Thanks for getting me... In that article they are using database for storing chunks of data..
is it possible to do the same with out using database tables.

Well, the point of the article is entirely to save you creating a byte array in memory of the whole file. If you're going to save the file to disc, it will use no memory at all, so the article becomes irrelevant.

That's right - I did.

I know. And, because the only way you can upload a file from the client is through what ASP.NET sends to the client, which is html, css and javascript, it's plain that you have no idea what ASP.NET is, or what it does. As I said.

you're welcome. You plainly need it. Would you like me to recommend one ?

That article is wrong. It just uses FileUpload.PostedFile.InputStream and saying that it is efficient. InputStream property is getting filled only when the complete file has been send from client to server through HTTP. So it makes no difference in the speed.

Yes, I understand now how your poor grasp of english is part of the issue, and I apologise for that, because that's not your fault. But, if you ask to upload files using streams, the only logical assumption is that you want some sort of a stream on the client side. That's not how it works, the file is uploaded and the ASP.NET control provides the file as a stream. This article is about not loading the entire file into memory before storing into a DB, but reading it a bit at a time, in order to save memory on the server. It will NOT make the file upload faster, nor can it. It will simply use less memory to store the file. Again, if you know anything about ASP.NET, there is ONE HTML upload control, and that's your only option to upload a file using ASP.NET. It will always work the same, until it hits the server.

You're not getting it. Streaming in this case is the streaming of the file, from the file upload control, on the server, to the database. It has nothing to do with uploading files faster, in fact, it's probably a tiny bit slower. It's for saving memory on the server side.
guntupalli_hanu wrote: Accha i have a question.. how rapidshare and other file upload sites manage their uploads..??
Probably by writing a java ( or .NET if it's IE only ) control and embedding it within the page. Then you can do any sort of operation you like, including selecting multiple files, etc. I use Godaddy as a web host, and their FTP client is written in Java, for example.

Thnaks for being with me..
Ok now i got you.. dont bother about the time... send me some useful syntax of streaming the file from the upload control, to the server ( here i am using my local machine.. so i want to upload file to c:\uploadFiles\ )
Thanks in advance

I don't have any idea how to write a java component to do that, I just know that's how it's done.
