This is what they say about using the ftp:
http://www.ipage.com/controlpanel/FTP.bml
You can build your site using Web authoring tools, and then use an FTP program to upload the Web pages to your iPage account.
To access your account using an FTP client, you need to connect to ftp.newsxpressmedia.com with your FTP username and password.
This is the method i'm trying now:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
namespace ScrollLabelTest
{
class FtpFileUploader
{
static string ftpurl = "ftp://ftp.newsxpressmedia.com";
static string filename = #"c:\temp\test.txt";
static string ftpusername = "newsxpressmediacom";
static string ftppassword = "*****";
static string value;
public static void test()
{
try
{
// Get the object used to communicate with the server.
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(ftpurl);
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
// This example assumes the FTP site uses anonymous logon.
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpusername, ftppassword);
// Copy the contents of the file to the request stream.
StreamReader sourceStream = new StreamReader(#"c:\temp\test.txt");
byte[] fileContents = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sourceStream.ReadToEnd());
sourceStream.Close();
request.ContentLength = fileContents.Length;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(fileContents, 0, fileContents.Length);
requestStream.Close();
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine("Upload File Complete, status {0}", response.StatusDescription);
response.Close();
}
catch(Exception err)
{
string t = err.ToString();
}
}
}
}
But i'm getting exception on the line:
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
The exception:
The requested URI is invalid for this FTP command
The complete exception error message:
System.Net.WebException was caught
HResult=-2146233079
Message=The requested URI is invalid for this FTP command.

StackTrace:

InnerException:

You need to include the filename.

I am working with mvc 4.5 trying to upload an image using FTP.
My code:
public virtual void Send(HttpPostedFileBase uploadfile, string fileName)
{
Stream streamObj = uploadfile.InputStream;
byte[] buffer = new byte[uploadfile.ContentLength];
streamObj.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
streamObj.Close();
string ftpurl = String.Format("{0}/{1}/{2}", _remoteHost, _foldersHost, fileName);
var request = FtpWebRequest.Create(ftpurl) as FtpWebRequest;
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
request.UsePassive = false;
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(_remoteUser, _remotePass);
request.ContentLength = buffer.Length;
var requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
requestStream.Close();
var response = (FtpWebResponse) request.GetResponse();
if (response != null)
response.Close();
}
The code is working on localhost, I am able to conect to the FTP server and upload the file, but the problem comes once the project is published. I am using SmarterASP to host the site. When I try to upload the image on production, the uploading method gives me an exception, the message says "Unable to connect to the remote server".
Any clue or workaround?
Exception details:
System.Net.FtpWebRequest.GetRequestStream() at AgileResto.Controllers.RestaurantsController.Send(HttpPostedFileBase uploadfile, String fileName) at AgileResto.Controllers.RestaurantsController.UploadFile(Int32 RestaurantList, HttpPostedFileBase file, HttpPostedFileBase file2)
you need to grant write permission in the server to the folder you are saving the file to

i use this code for ftp upload from this link.
and when i use that, show me that error , what am i doing?
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Text;
public partial class CS : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void FTPUpload(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//FTP Server URL.
string ftp = "92.222.117.211";
//FTP Folder name. Leave blank if you want to upload to root folder.
string ftpFolder = "Uploads/";
byte[] fileBytes = null;
//Read the FileName and convert it to Byte array.
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.FileName);
using (StreamReader fileStream = new StreamReader(FileUpload1.PostedFile.InputStream))
{
fileBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(fileStream.ReadToEnd());
fileStream.Close();
}
try
{
//Create FTP Request.
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(ftp + ftpFolder + fileName);
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
//Enter FTP Server credentials.
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("foxseria", "244RujnnL2");
request.ContentLength = fileBytes.Length;
request.UsePassive = true;
request.UseBinary = true;
request.ServicePoint.ConnectionLimit = fileBytes.Length;
request.EnableSsl = false;
using (Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
requestStream.Write(fileBytes, 0, fileBytes.Length);
requestStream.Close();
}
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
lblMessage.Text += fileName + " uploaded.<br />";
response.Close();
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
throw new Exception((ex.Response as FtpWebResponse).StatusDescription);
}
}
}
and this is a my code, and the ftp server and username - password are correct.
You are missing the ftp:// prefix, and a slash between the hostname/IP address and the folder name, in your URL.
Your would-be URL is:
92.222.117.211Uploads/filename
While a real URL is like:
ftp://92.222.117.211/Uploads/filename
I have a requirement that I need to download a file from an URL and need to upload that file into ftp.
I followed the below approach.
pdfMemoryStream= new MemoryStream(client.DownloadData("http://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg"));
FtpUploadString(pdfMemoryStream, "ftp://192.168.1.1/SampleFiles/", "FTPUserName", "Password");
private static string FtpUploadString(MemoryStream memStream, string to_uri, string user_name, string password)
{
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(to_uri);
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
request.Credentials =
new NetworkCredential(user_name, password);
request.UseBinary = true;
byte[] buffer = new byte[memStream.Length];
memStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
memStream.Close();
using (Stream reqStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
reqStream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
}
return string.Empty;
}
I am getting below exception
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Net.WebException' occurred in
System.dll
Additional information: The requested URI is invalid for this FTP
command.
I think your problem is that your url is missing the file name. If I remember correctly you must pass the file name in the URL. So it would look something like this:
"ftp://192.168.1.1/SampleFiles/file.txt"
I have got the following code, I need to upload multiple files which don't have an extension/type assigned to them. The following code below works, but not on these files as it's trying to make a file for example called: ftp.server/file
Here is my code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
String sourcefilepath = #"path"; // e.g. “d:/test.docx”
String ftpurl = #"ftp"; // e.g. ftp://serverip/foldername/foldername
String ftpusername = #"user"; // e.g. username
String ftppassword = #"pass"; // e.g. password
string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(sourcefilepath);
// Get the object used to communicate with the server.
foreach (string filename in filePaths)
{
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(ftpurl + Path.GetFileName(filename));
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
// This example assumes the FTP site uses anonymous logon.
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpusername, ftppassword);
// Copy the contents of the file to the request stream.
StreamReader sourceStream = new StreamReader(sourcefilepath);
byte[] fileContents = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sourceStream.ReadToEnd());
sourceStream.Close();
request.ContentLength = fileContents.Length;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(fileContents, 0, fileContents.Length);
requestStream.Close();
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine("Upload File Complete, status {0}", response.StatusDescription);
response.Close();
}
}
}
}
The files are from an iPhone backup, iPhone backups don't give the files extensions so I need a work around.
The solution I found was to copy the files and add a dummy extension.
I am using the following code to learn how to load files with FTP. How do I set the path or folder into which my file will be uploaded ?
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Text;
namespace Examples.System.Net
{
public class WebRequestGetExample
{
public static void Main ()
{
// Get the object used to communicate with the server.
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("ftp://www.contoso.com/test.htm");
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
// This example assumes the FTP site uses anonymous logon.
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential ("anonymous","janeDoe#contoso.com");
// Copy the contents of the file to the request stream.
StreamReader sourceStream = new StreamReader("testfile.txt");
byte [] fileContents = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sourceStream.ReadToEnd());
sourceStream.Close();
request.ContentLength = fileContents.Length;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(fileContents, 0, fileContents.Length);
requestStream.Close();
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine("Upload File Complete, status {0}", response.StatusDescription);
response.Close();
}
}
}
}
The folder is part of the URL you set when you create request: "ftp://www.contoso.com/test.htm". If you use "ftp://www.contoso.com/wibble/test.htm" then the file will be uploaded to a folder named wibble.
You may need to first use a request with Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.MakeDirectory to make the wibble folder if it doesn't already exist.
