Renaming and deletion not working

[Muhammad Farjad]

Hi,

I am having a problem using File Explorer. Uploading works fine but when I try to rename or delete any file or folder, an error pops up saying that "The selected file could not be deleted because the application did not have enough permissions...".

I have gone through the earlier posts in forums regarding this problem but could not get to find out the solution. I am using ASP.NET AJAX Q3 2009 SP2 version and the declarations of file explorer in my codes are as follow:

> in .aspx

<telerik:RadFileExplorer ID="fileExplorer" runat="server"
DisplayUpFolderItem="True"
EnableCopy="True" Skin="Windows7"
OnClientLoad="OnClientLoad"
Configuration-MaxUploadFileSize="2000000000"
Width="524px" TreePaneWidth="150px">
</telerik:RadFileExplorer>

> in .aspx.cs

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (!Page.IsPostBack)
        {
            string[] searchPatterns = new string[1];
            searchPatterns[0] = "*.*";
            fileExplorer.Configuration.SearchPatterns = searchPatterns;

            string[] paths = new string[1];
            paths[0] = "~\\Root\\" + (string)Session["userName"];

            fileExplorer.Configuration.ViewPaths = paths;
            fileExplorer.Configuration.UploadPaths = paths;
            fileExplorer.Configuration.DeletePaths = paths;
        }
    }

Kindly suggest me a simple solution to sort this problem out. Thanks

Hi Muhammad,

I recommend you to check the permissions granted to the ASP.NET account and the IIS User account to this folder.

Hi Petio,

The permissions are ok, problem occurs only when I try to configure the paths in code behind file, but if I configure the paths at the time of declaration in aspx file like

<telerik:RadFileExplorer ID="fileExplorer" runat="server" DisplayUpFolderItem="True" EnableCopy="True" Skin="Windows7"
OnClientLoad="OnClientLoad" Configuration-MaxUploadFileSize="2000000000"
Width="524px" TreePaneWidth="150px">

<Configuration ViewPaths="~/Root/farjad" UploadPaths="~/Root/farjad" DeletePaths="~/Root/farjad" />

</telerik:RadFileExplorer>

then every thing works fine i.e. uploading, renaming and deletion. I am looking forward to your help.

Hello Muhammad,

I have already answered your support ticket. For convenience I have paste it here as well:

"The message which is shown is expected, because the default FileBrowserContentProvider used in RadFileExplorer works with virtual paths only that can be resolved using Server.MapPath method. The paths set in the markup are correct virtual path and they can be resolved by the mentioned method, but the paths set in code behind are incorrect. Please check the differences outlined here:

ASPX:

ViewPaths="~/Root/farjad"
UploadPaths="~/Root/farjad"

DeletePaths="~/Root/farjad"

C#:

paths[0] = "~\\Root\\" + (string)Session["userName"];

You need to change the path in C# code to:

paths[0] = "~/Root/" + (string)Session["userName"];

"
