POYoutube API upload - Incomplete Multipart body error
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm trying to upload videos in Youtube through HttpWebRequest. Everything seems to be fine when uploading following the example given in API documentation. I see that request is being formed correctly, with content and token sent but I receive "Incomplete multipart body" as response.</p> <p>Thanks Blerim</p> <pre><code>public bool YouTubeUpload() { string newLine = "\r\n"; //token and url are retrieved from YouTube at runtime. string token = string.Empty; string url = string.Empty; // construct the command url url = url + "?nexturl=http://www.mywebsite.com/"; // get a unique string to use for the data boundary string boundary = Guid.NewGuid().ToString().Replace("-", string.Empty); foreach (string file in Request.Files) { HttpPostedFileBase hpf = Request.Files[file] as HttpPostedFileBase; if (hpf.ContentLength == 0) continue; // get info about the file and open it for reading Stream fs = hpf.InputStream; HttpWebRequest webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url); webRequest.ContentType = "multipart/form-data; boundary=" + boundary; webRequest.Method = "POST"; webRequest.KeepAlive = true; webRequest.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials; MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(memoryStream); //token writer.Write("--" + boundary + newLine); writer.Write("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"{0}\"{1}{2}", "token", newLine, newLine); writer.Write(token); writer.Write(newLine); //Video writer.Write("--" + boundary + newLine); writer.Write("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"{0}\"; filename=\"{1}\"{2}", "File1", hpf.FileName, newLine); writer.Write("Content-Type: {0}" + newLine + newLine, hpf.ContentType); writer.Flush(); byte[] boundarybytes = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(string.Format("--{0}--{1}", boundary, newLine)); webRequest.ContentLength = memoryStream.Length + fs.Length + boundarybytes.Length; Stream webStream = webRequest.GetRequestStream(); // write the form data to the web stream memoryStream.Position = 0; byte[] tempBuffer = new byte[memoryStream.Length]; memoryStream.Read(tempBuffer, 0, tempBuffer.Length); memoryStream.Close(); webStream.Write(tempBuffer, 0, tempBuffer.Length); // write the file to the stream int size; byte[] buf = new byte[1024 * 10]; do { size = fs.Read(buf, 0, buf.Length); if (size > 0) webStream.Write(buf, 0, size); } while (size > 0); // write the trailer to the stream webStream.Write(boundarybytes, 0, boundarybytes.Length); webStream.Close(); fs.Close(); //fails here. Error - Incomplete multipart body. WebResponse webResponse = webRequest.GetResponse(); } return true; } </code></pre>
