No paging works, the filter or sort

[Marcelo]

I have a RadFileExplorer on mi app. I want show a  different   folder for each kind of use.
So, I set the viewpath dinamically. I created a mapping file Beacause the folders aren't on my app's  directory.
The RadFileEplorer shows the files, but  the paging doesn't works, and  always show me the same files.
 The Filtering  and the  sorting doesn't  works neither.  
  
 You can see in the atached files ,  the pagination shows same files on the first and on the second page.               
                 
here is The mapping File, it looks well and works.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<CustomFileBrowserProvider>
  <Paths>
    <genericHandlerPath>FileSystemHandler.ashx</genericHandlerPath>
  </Paths>
  <Mappings>
    <Mapping>
      <PhysicalPath><![CDATA[ D:\MarceloEscobar\Descargas del Reloj\Central]]></PhysicalPath>
      <VirtualPath><![CDATA[descargascentral]]></VirtualPath>
    </Mapping>
  </Mappings>
</CustomFileBrowserProvider>

Here is the RadFileExplore declaration 

<telerik:RadAjaxPanel ID="RadAjaxPanel1" runat="server" LoadingPanelID="progress">
            <telerik:RadFormDecorator ID="FormDecorator1" runat="server" Skin="Office2007" />
            <asp:Label runat="server" Font-Size="Large" ID="lblEncabezado" CssClass="label" Text="Incorporar Archivos del Reloj:" />
             <telerik:RadFileExplorer ID="FileExplorer1" runat="server" DisplayUpFolderItem="false" AllowPaging="true" EnableOpenFile="true" PageSize="7"   EnableAsyncUpload="false" EnableCopy="false" EnableCreateNewFolder="false" Height="310px" OnClientFileOpen="OnClientFileOpen" OnClientMove="OnClientMove" Skin="Office2007" VisibleControls="Grid" Width="600px">
                <Configuration  SearchPatterns="*.REI" />
            </telerik:RadFileExplorer>
                 <br />

and here is mi code.

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
            Dim ruta = "descargascentral"
            FileExplorer1.Configuration.ContentProviderTypeName = _
            GetType(CustomFileSystemProvider).AssemblyQualifiedName
            Dim rutas As String() = New String() {ruta}
            FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.AllowRowsDragDrop = False
            FileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = rutas
            FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.Scrolling.AllowScroll = True
        End If
End Sub

I can't set the initialpath property because i don't know if the folder contais files or no.

   thanks for your helping

update: also doesn't allow me to navigate within subfolders.

Hi Marcelo,

It sounds like you are having trouble loading the directory once you change pages in Telerik's RadFileExplorer. As you can see in the documentation here, when a directory is loaded the FileExplorer is using an AJAX Callback("Directory load on demand loading using ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Callback mechanism"). In your page load function, it seems you are only passing the FileExplorer the directory when it is 
not a postback. It may benefit you to check if the page.IsCallback property, and then pass the directory back to the FileExplorer.

Hopefully this helps,
Master Chief

thanks for responding, 
please can you give an example?
 I tried a lot of things and i haven't  got it so clear .
thanks  again.

No problem, I'm not sure if this will even help, but it will at least fire when there is an AJAX Callback request. I just copied over your original function into a Page.IsCallback property. Try this out and see if it helps re-bind the data during the Callback.

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
            Dim ruta = "descargascentral"
            FileExplorer1.Configuration.ContentProviderTypeName = _
            GetType(CustomFileSystemProvider).AssemblyQualifiedName
            Dim rutas As String() = New String() {ruta}
            FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.AllowRowsDragDrop = False
            FileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = rutas
            FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.Scrolling.AllowScroll = True
        End If
        If Page.IsCallback Then
            Dim ruta = "descargascentral"
            FileExplorer1.Configuration.ContentProviderTypeName = _
            GetType(CustomFileSystemProvider).AssemblyQualifiedName
            Dim rutas As String() = New String() {ruta}
            FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.AllowRowsDragDrop = False
            FileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = rutas
            FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.Scrolling.AllowScroll = True
        End If
End Sub

Good luck,
Master Chief

Thanks but still not working.
I'm pretty sure it has to do with the source folder.
 Because when the folder is inside the application works perfect.
I will keep trying.
Thanks.

I  trying to find the solution but, i have the same issue. Please can help me somebody.

Hi Marcelo,

As I can see from the provided sample code you are using CustomContentProvider. If this is correct could you please verify that you have overridden the CheckReadPermissions method and if it returns the correct value?

If you do have correct override and the you still experience this behavior, could you please open a formal support ticket and provide sample fully runnable project reproducing the problem so we can examine and debug it locally?

All the best,
