FileUpSE Support in ASP


If you have created upload applications using FileUp Standard Edition (FileUpSE), you can use FileUpEE to create 3-tier uploads (client to web Server to file server) without rewriting your existing FileUpSE scripts. FileUpEE's FileUpCompat property allows you to use FileUpEE with FileUpSE.

The FileUpCompat property and FileUpSE support are available only in ASP, not in ASP.NET
FileUpSE can handle uploads of up to 4-GB. If you expect uploads greater than 4-GB, use FileUpEE on both the Web server and the file server.

A FileUpSE upload application includes a client-side file submission script and a server-side script that uses FileUp to process the upload:

In a 3-tier FileUpEE upload, if FileUpCompat is set to true on the web server, you can use a FileUpSE script on the file server:

In a FileUpCompat upload, FileUpEE must be installed on the web server, and FileUpSE on the file server.

When you use an existing FileUpSE script on the file server, in your FileUpEE web server script:

  1. Create an instance of FileUpEE:
    Set oFileUpEE = Server.CreateObject("SoftArtisans.FileUpEe")
  2. Set FileUpCompat to true:
    oFileUpEE.FileUpCompat = True
  3. Call ProcessRequest.
    oFileUpEE.ProcessRequest Request, False, False
  4. Set TargetUrl to the URL of the FileUpSE script on the file server:
    oFileUpEE.TargetUrl = "http://locahost/fileserver/FileUpResp.asp"
  5. Call SendRequest:
    intSAResult = oFileUpEE.SendRequest()

Limitations

FileUpEE's FileUpCompat property allows you to use FileUpEE without rewriting existing FileUpSE code. However, the following FileUpEE features are not available in a FileUpCompat application:
