I'm writing a webbased flash application to upload big files (up to 750MB) on a server using PHP (Version 4). For small files it will work, but for large one the upload process seems to freeze. The upload "freeze" at different times and loaded MegaBytes.

Can you use the FileReference.upload() function to upload files to Sharepoint or do I have to use the SP web services? This is without adding your own ASP.NET Web Services, just using the built in SP Web Services.
View 1 RepliesI am creating flash uploader and want to start 10 uploadings at time.But flash upload only 2 files on domain at time, other references wait for something.In IE with ActiveX Player limitation is about 6 files at time.Is there any ideas how to change this limitation? For uploading I need to use FileReference.upload without creating URLRequest object from file data.

I'm going to implement a file uploading application using flex 3.5 and php. In the flex code I need to read the content of the uploaded file without calling the FileReference.load() method (Since it is a big issue when uploading large files). I checked many online articles and didn't find a way to do this in flex.access the content of this file without using FileReference.load() method?
View 1 RepliesOnce the first file is successfully uploaded and the data is returned from server (onUploadCompleteData), I begin to upload the second file from FileList. Here comes the funny - listeners onOpen, onProgress, onComplete are successfully invoked in Flash, the filereference is indeed the filereference of the second file, size matches. But the onUploadCompleteData is never invoked. I checked in IE HTTP Analyzer and there is a simply no outgoing data (0 bytes), even tho the request is made. So the file "finishes" uploading like nothing would have happened but actually it didn't upload at all.
I tried to add a 30 seconds delay between uploads and that works flawless till now. So I tried, 1 sec, 3, 5, 10... didn't work. I simply cannot let a 30 seconds delay between uploads.
ActionScript Code:
public function upload(file:FileReference){
//IntervalManager.clearInterval(this, "uploadInterval"); <- added interval for testing, works with 30 secs

Okay, so I am calling my scripts from the folder "php/" Thus, my FileReference calls "php/upload.php" to upload. However, my uploads are in "uploads/" and not in "php/uploads". When the PHP script is called, it apparently ignores the caller (the SWF file) and looks for uploads in its own directory (the "php/" folder). It may be a PHP question, but how do I reference the uploads folder as being in the parent directory of the php files in my PHP script?
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if it is possible to use files the user selected through browse() in flash, without actually uploading them. For example displaying a local image after the user selected it from their computer.
View 2 Repliesi am currently creating a software, i need to upload images form my HDD to server. i can do this with FileReference Object. with this code i can select file.
var f:FileReference;
f.browse(); // for selecting file (object)
and after that i will send that FileReference object to a PHP file and i upload via that PHP file.
but i want to upload file without using FileReference Class i am using File Class on Air 1.0 on Flash, and that class can provide full url of image from my HDD like: D:My Documentsimage01.jpg
there is any way to upload this file on my HDD to server without using browse() class for selecting file on Flash with PHP?
or is there one way to convert File Class (AIR) to FileReference?
I need to upload a picture to the server. I found from Adobe's website a PHP script that will receive the POST data. I tried to put the link to the script but this forum won't allow due to my limited amount of posts. You can find the web site by putting these exact keywords in Google: "Adobe Flash Platform * Using the FileReference class".It will be too messy to post the entire code but the most essential code should be this one:
Code:
var fileTest:FileReference = new FileReference;
fileTest.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, fileSelect);

Is there any way to have a function which connects to a server and uploads a local file without calling FileReference.browse?I have an application at a kiosk which is recording a short webcam movie of a guest. Once completed, I'd like for the video to be put on a server and a link send to the guest. I've got the link part working, but am not sure how to get the file up to the server automagically.
View 4 RepliesI got a FileRefrence instance for a simple upload and it did work for some time in the past, but now I just can't discover what made it stop woking. Can anyone help me find it out? To simplify, I took only the necessary code (not working as the full version). Here are some details:
1. I'm using Flash Player 9 (this can't change because it is a part of a bigger project). My current host machine is a Windows Vista one. The sandbox is set to network access.
2. The FileReference calls a simple php script hosted at an Apache server (Linux). The script permissions are set to 644 (it works for file uploads coming from plain html pages) and I set the folder permission to 777 just to avoid any other source of errors. Here is the simple code for the php script:
<?php// receiving variables$uid = trim($_POST['uid']); // just to check for a post variable that I must send while uploading (won't work even if I revome it)
// a file to check if the script is really called
$myfile = fopen("upload.txt", "wb");fputs($myfile, "file upload for uid $uid
");
[code]....
Just for checking I add a Loader instance and used its "load" method with the same "urlSend" variable. It worked and the php script generated the output file...
Is there anyway of upload a file in flex 3.5 without using fileReference? Or even with fileReference, but without browsing, for example, I'm trying to take a printscreen and send it to my java web server

I need to let people upload a .pdf document there are other places on my site that allow people to upload .jpg which are usualy a fairly small file size.Well I need them to be able to upload a .pdf which is considerably larger.The problem is that every time I atempt an upload, it gets to about 65000 bytes and then results in an IOError.
View 1 RepliesMy users upload a certain kind of text file that sometimeshas references to images stored locally on their hard drive. I needto check this file either on the server or within a flash app tosee if it has these references and then grab those images in aflash app to upload to my server.So I can use FileReference easily enough to have users uploadlocal images. But FileReference requires users to select their files with a dialog box. I can't have that. Myusers wouldn't know where to look and there are typically way toomany files, sometimes with the same name but in differentdirectories.
I can also just use URLLoader with a local URL, I guess I canprobably just use Loader too? That works great. The problem here isI can't communicate with both the server and the local filesystemin the same flash application due to Flash's security sandboxrestrictions. So I can get out of those security restrictions byplacing or editing a trust file in designated locations on variousOSes. I then need to install this trust file which is more invasiveand confusing to users then I want to be...Java's method of accessing local files from a web applet bysimply signing the applet with a certificate and having a dialogbox popup where the users grants access is ideal. Is there anything
there is a way to call two times filereference.upload on the same filereference object ?It's seem something is not call the second time..I need to re upload an images when this one is truncated after upload on web server.

I'm deploying a small application with Adobe Air. My application will do batch upload from filepath which stored in a text file. For example, in a text file name "list.txt", there is a string "C:myfilesIMG_0001.JPG". Now I want to upload this image file, keep tracking of upload progress :-< I want to use FileReference to get the upload progress, but I don't know how to import from file's path. I also wonder how to use FileReference to upload this file without prompting a dialog for user to select file.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to upload images in Flex 4 and haven't got so much success with it yet. My code:

This worked well when I took the Webservice approach and stored the Image (= bytearray) in SqlServer.
I'm trying to perform a file upload using a FileReference from a Flex app running in Firefox 4. However when I attempt to call the upload() method, the Filereference throws an IOError with the following Error #2038: File I/O Error. URL: [URL] If I don't explicitly add a listener for the IOErrorEvent, then I get a Flash player popup stating SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.
The request doens't even hit my server (I can verify by placing breakpoints in the Java code and watching the HTTP Requests that go out using HTTPFox), so it seems to me that this is a client side issue (right?). I've done some searching for the problem on google and the suggestions included wrapping the upload() call in a timeout/callLater, and attempting to attach the sessionId to the request (since Firefox creates a new thread for the upload and doesn't attach the proper cookies). Neither of these approaches has worked for me. I don't experience this problem with Internet Explorer, only Firefox.

After moving a web site to another server flash upload stopped working. After some debuging and isolating the problem I found out that in SWF file (used for multiple upload) FileReference.upload() method doesn't work. URL called by item.upload(_root.uploadScript) isn't called.
Here is the code:
flash:
listener.onSelect = function(fileRefList:FileReferenceList){
var list:Array = fileRefList.fileList;
var item:FileReference;
_root.toUploadCount = list.length;

how would I upload a file using file reference, but having the file save on the server with a random number.
This is to avoid 2 people uploading to the server with the same name.
I am currently making a program to upload certain files onto a web server and I have come accross a problem.In my code I've got:
ActionScript Code:
if(fileRef.upload(new URLRequest("http://www.mackaygymnastics.org.au/administrator/upload.php"))) {
[code]...
Now I understand that this is returned because the upload function returned a false, but why is it returning this false. Is this because the URLRequest is wrong or the uplaod file is wrong or something else? I've tried looking all over the web for another case and it doesn't give me one.
I needed a file upload feature. I pretty much just copy pasted the code from the flash help and when rendering, flash would show the file browser window when rendered in flash.However, when displaying the swf in the browser, either on my local laptop server or FTP-ed up on my server, the popup would not pop(up).why does it run when publish/test it in flash?

import proxy.FileReferenceProxy;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;[code]........
I've been trying to build a simple flash uploader to upload files onto a server using the FileReference-class and simple PHP. Trying this on a localhost-server succeeded within two minutes, great!

For 2 weeks now I've been trying to debug what's wrong with my application, in failing to upload a file. I traced using firebug, and flash doesnt even TRY to access the aspx script which uploads.So Im trying to look now for an alternative, preferrably using javascript. Like taking all that upload behavior to be javascript's responsibility rather than flash's responsibility.
View 6 RepliesI'm using Flex 4.5 in a Mobile air for android application. So, Using the Camera/Camera roll [URL]I want to do a simple upload using amfphp Note: Since this is how you get pictures on devices, i cant use the filreference because it wants you to get the pictures using "browse" which cant be done on android or ios My plan is, after I select a picture or capture one with the camera, in the event I can get the local url to the picture that was taken like this:
[URL]
I'm putting this in the imageURL var (i'm assuming i should make it into a byte array to transfer it, im not exactly sure this is my first time making something like this)Here's how i'm taking that image, making it into a byte array, and using amfphp to send the upload to the server:
protected function upload_btn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(imageURL);
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(request);
[code]....
But i'm getting an error NetConnection.Call.BadVersion.This is the first time im trying something like this so im not even really sure if im going about it right. All the examples I find online go about using the fileReference class, but that seems to require me to use the "browse" method, and im on a mobile application that uses the camera and camera roll to grab pictures off the device, and im not sure how to incorporate that into the fileref class. I figured i could just get the byte array and send it to php myself and it should be just fine.
server, the swf is in the same domain as the images directory andthe PHP file. It's exactly as laid out in the Unleashed book: (see ). However, I get an HTTP 406 error whatever I do. I've checkedfile permissions. I suppose it is some sort of security problem butI can't see what. I tried the same thing on my local PC apacheserver and there I got an IO error can point me to more details onthe FileReference error handling
