File upload to server [message #897906]

Hi!

How can I upload a file from the client to the server? RemoteFileService contains a method putRemoteFile() which sounds like a possible candidate but it is disabled for remote access (annotated with @RemoteServiceAccessDenied). I'd like to store client contracts in a server directory.

Thanks

Stefan

Hi,

if you want to test if the putRemoteFile() works for you, you could create your own fileservice, copy the code into it and test it.
Don't forget to register your service

Hi there

The annotation is present due to security reasons. Calling this method is possible but only from the server. So you have to create a custom service which delegates the file upload to the RemoteFileService.

This gives you the possibility to allow or deny a file upload.

Btw: If you would like to store your files in a database you do not necessarly have to use the remote file service. Instead, you could create a byte[] and send it to the server. Have a look at the IOUtility for helper methods.

Regards
Claudio
