Hi, i install and run SilverLightUploader with DNN 4.9.2.
I create a folder under DesktopModules and copy all the files to that folder: FileUpload.ashx(.cs), FileUpload.xap, Upload.ascx(my control). I copy the DC.SilverLightUpload.dll to the bin folder.

I can add and use the control in my website. But it only upload to folder [Upload] at root folder. I try to modify the value of [uploadPath] in the FileUpload.ashx.cs but it still upload to the same old [Upload] folder. Looks like it doesn't matter what the value of [uploadPath] is (i delete all the code inside FileUpload.ashx.cs and it still work, of course it uploads to [Upload] folder).

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks a lot.

You can change the path in the "FileUpload.ashx" file. Change the line:

string uploadPath = context.Server.MapPath("~/DesktopModules/SilverlightFileUpload/Upload");

Where did you get the "DC.SilverLightUpload.dll" file from? it is not in the "SilverlightFileUpload_01.00.00_Install.zip" package.

Thanks for responding.
I did try to change the path in "FileUpload.ashx" but it still didn't work. As i mentioned before, even if i delete all the code in that file, it still upload to the Upload folder at root level.
And the DLL i got from this package:http://www.codeplex.com/SilverlightFileUpld. Are they not the same?

Thanks.

If you just change the

string uploadPath = context.Server.MapPath("~/DesktopModules/SilverlightFileUpload/Upload");

and NOT change anything else, it shoud work. The DC.SilverLightUpload.dll is a different project. We use their code but it is a different implementation.

Thanks for the help. I use your module and it works perfectly :D
I have one more question: can i specify the upload folder via module interface? If a customer want to choose the upload folder, i can't ask him to modify the code himself. Also, if there are multiple users and each has their own folder, how can i make the uploader to upload to the corresponding folder?

Thanks a lot.

You can make the changes but it would take custom coding. It's too many steps to describe in a forum post.

We using the Silverlight File Upload 3 - Excellent Xap Does the upload files path support [Tokens] for example
c:\myddnstuff\users\[User:UserName]

no it uses:

c:\myddnstuff\[Portal number]\[User number]

This is the only "safe" way to do it. If you had user names with special characters the file system or the web services would probably choke on it.
