While I got the If... to fire, it still didn't work. Then I realized the code you posted that I had copied had a "+" instead of "&" when appending the filename to the path. I fixed that and it did the trick. thanks for all of your help.

Hi foolishmortal,

Please try demo http://aspuploader.com/demo/form-singlefile.asp. You can find the source code of this page in the asp uploader download package.

Test it on your end please. Does the If Request.Form("myuploader") work on that example page?

Regards,

Ken

After more debugging, the "If Request.Form("myuploader")&""<>"" Then" is never firing; I put an "else" and it fires every time. I'm using the code shown above... any ideas?

Thanks

I'm using the full path; I simply hid it for security. Also, the directory has proper permissions. I can upload fine, except when replacing a file with a new one of the same filename.

Hi foolishmortal,

Please use the full path, not ... and ensure that your site has the write/read permission of the location you set.

I thought this had it working, but now when duplicate files are uploaded, nothing happens. They are shown as successfully uploaded, but no overwriting at all is taking place; the original file remains with no showing of the new file on the server.

CodeL

<h2>Select one or more files to upload.</h2>
<p> </p>
<form id="form1" method="POST">
<%
Dim uploader
Set uploader=new AspUploader
uploader.MaxSizeKB=10240
uploader.Name="myuploader"
uploader.InsertText="Upload File (Max 10M)"
uploader.MultipleFilesUpload=true
uploader.AllowedFileExtensions="*.mp4"
%>
<%=uploader.GetString() %>
</form>
<br/><br/>
<%
If Request.Form("myuploader")&""<>"" Then
Dim mvcfile
Set mvcfile=uploader.GetUploadedFile(Request.Form("myuploader"))
pth="c:\inetpub\..."+mvcfile.FileName
mvcfile.CopyTo(pth)
End If
%>

Hi Foolishmortal,

The example below shows you how to use the "CopyTo" method to save the upload file. This method will overwrite the exists file.

<%@ Language="VBScript" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<head>

<title>

Form - Single File Upload

</title>

</head>

<body>

<h2>Single File Upload</h2>

<p> A basic sample demonstrating the use of the Upload control.</p>

Dim uploader

Set uploader=new AspUploader

uploader.MaxSizeKB=10240

uploader.Name="myuploader"

uploader.InsertText="Upload File (Max 10M)"

uploader.MultipleFilesUpload=true

<%=uploader.GetString() %>

</form>

If Request.Form("myuploader")&""<>"" Then

Dim mvcfile

Set mvcfile=uploader.GetUploadedFile(Request.Form("myuploader"))

mvcfile.CopyTo("C:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspuploader\photos\"+mvcfile.FileName)

End If

</div>

</body>

</html>

Ken

Multiple File Timestamp

foolishmortal — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 09:15:12 GMT

I've read various posts similar to my issue, but none identical.

I need to regularly update a file with the same name (a page calling it is looking for a particular file name). When a new one is uploaded, it doesn't overwrite the old one; it is the original filename_timestamp. This causes the prior file to have to be manually deleted first, which isn't very convenient. I just want an existing file automatically overwritten if a new one is uploaded with the same filename.

I saw some code in another thread about checking if the file exists, but I'm not sure where that check should take place. Hoping there is a setting somewhere that will do this automatically. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
