Make sure that UploadPaths or DeletePaths properties are set correctly

Make sure that the path set to the property has the same format as the path shown in the RadFileExplorer's addressbar

• Remove the RadFileExplorer (or all RadControls) from the page

• In the code behind of the same page where the RadFileExplorer was declared add this code:

  • C#
  • VB.NET

  CopyC#

  protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
      string[] paths = new string[] { "~/RootDirectory1/" };// Path to test
  
      //RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = paths;
      //RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.DeletePaths = paths;
      //RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.UploadPaths = paths;
  
      FullPermissionsTest(Server.MapPath(paths[0]));// Pass physical path
  }
  
  
  /// <summary>
  /// Full permission test
  /// </summary>
  /// <param name="testPhysicalPath">Physical path</param>
  private void FullPermissionsTest(string testPhysicalPath)
  {
      try
      {
          string physicalPathToTestFolder = System.IO.Path.Combine(testPhysicalPath, "TestDirectory");
          System.IO.DirectoryInfo testDir = System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(physicalPathToTestFolder);// Create folder
          testDir.GetDirectories();// List folders
          string testFilePath = System.IO.Path.Combine(testDir.FullName, "TestFile1.txt");// test file paths
          System.IO.File.Create(testFilePath).Close();// Create a file
          testDir.GetFiles("*.*");// List files
          System.IO.File.OpenRead(testFilePath).Close();// Open a file
          System.IO.File.Delete(testFilePath);// delete the test file
          System.IO.Directory.Delete(physicalPathToTestFolder);// delete the test folder
      }
      catch (Exception ex)
      {// Show the probelm
  
          string message = ex.Message;
          string script = string.Format("alert('{0}');", message.Replace("'", @""""));
          ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this.Page, this.Page.GetType(), "KEY", script, true);
      }
  }

  End Sub

• If an exception is thrown during the test, the text of the error (the value of the ex.Message property) will be shown as a JavaScript popup
