Hello Abhi,

RadUpload provides a TargetPhysicalFolder property that can be used to set a physical path to a storage folder. Please take a look at this article for further information.

Hi Tina ,

The article in your example shows a local folder. But in our case we are using like

TargetPhysicalFolder = ftp://111.111.1.1/Photos/" .

We are getting error : The given path format is not supported.

Can u Pls provide any ex using TargetPhysicalFolder like above.


Thanks.

Hi Abhi,

Please accept my apology - it seems I have misunderstood your question. This is why I want to thank you for further elaborating on your scenario.

However, when working with the RadUpload control you need to keep in mind that it works exclusively with an ASP HTTP handler that processes the files. This is why you can use only Http or Https protocols when indicating the target folder or the path to the UploadHandler. Apart from that, the only other approach you can use is to store the files locally using the TargetPhysicalFolder property.

Hello Abhi,

The RadUpload can't upload directly to ftp but you can create custom uploading logic that uploads a file from a Silverlight solution to an ftp server. I'd advice you to search through the common Silverlight forums for different solutions.
