Hello Pat,

Can you tell me how exactly you set up the upload control? Some runnable code snippets would be useful for investigating this. 

Keep in mind that Silverlight has some limitations when it comes to working with the file system. One of those is that you can open a file only via a file dialog. So, if you try to open the file without meeting this requirement the reported exception will be thrown.

Hello Martin,

 

Thanks for the reply and sorry for this late answer.

Yes we work with a file dialog to upload the file.

At the end i just create another radUploadHandler and it works even if the code is more simple ;

new uploadHandler :

public class xxxUploadHandler : RadUploadHandler
    {
    }

old uploadHandler :

public class yyyUploadHandler : RadUploadHandler
    {
        private string newFileName = string.Empty;

        public override Dictionary<string, object> GetAssociatedData()
        {
            Dictionary<string, object> dict = base.GetAssociatedData();
            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(newFileName))
            {
                dict.Add("NewFileName", this.newFileName);
            }
            return dict;
        }

        public override string GetFilePath(string fileName)
        {
            fileName = base.GetFilePath(this.GetFileName(fileName));
            return fileName;
        }

        private string GetFileName(string fileName)
        {
            if (this.IsNewFileRequest())
            {
                this.ResultChunkTag = string.Format("_[{0:yyyymmdd_hhmmss}]", DateTime.Now);
            }

            else if (this.FormChunkTag != null)
            {
                this.ResultChunkTag = this.FormChunkTag;
            }

            if (this.ResultChunkTag != null)
            {
                int i = fileName.LastIndexOf('.');
                if (i >= 0)
                {
                    fileName = fileName.Insert(i, this.ResultChunkTag);
                }
            }
            return this.newFileName = fileName;
        }
    }

but i still not understand wy the old uploadhandler doesn't work and throw an security exception as the new one works ?

Hi Pat,

I tested your upload handler but I wasn't able to reproduce the error. I guess it was some dlls caching or similar issue causing this. However, I am glad that you were able to resolve this on your side.
