POC# - Download Directory - FTP
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm trying to download a directory, using FTP in a C# application. I basically need to take a remote dir, and move it, and its contents into a local dir. </p> <p>Here is the function I'm currently using, and what the log output and errors are. The sample I'm referencing is for getting files, and possibly not directories:</p> <pre><code> private void Download(string file, string destination) { try { string getDir = "ftp://" + ftpServerIP + ftpPath + file + "/"; string putDir = destination + "\\" + file; Debug.WriteLine("GET: " + getDir); Debug.WriteLine("PUT: " + putDir); FtpWebRequest reqFTP; reqFTP = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create (new Uri(getDir)); reqFTP.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpUserID, ftpPassword); reqFTP.UseBinary = true; reqFTP.KeepAlive = false; reqFTP.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile; reqFTP.Proxy = null; reqFTP.UsePassive = false; FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)reqFTP.GetResponse(); Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream(); FileStream writeStream = new FileStream(putDir, FileMode.Create); int Length = 2048; Byte[] buffer = new Byte[Length]; int bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, Length); while (bytesRead > 0) { writeStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead); bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, Length); } writeStream.Close(); response.Close(); } catch (WebException wEx) { MessageBox.Show(wEx.Message, "Download Error"); } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Download Error"); } } </code></pre> <p>Debug:</p> <pre><code>GET: ftp://I.P.ADDR/SOME_DIR.com/members/forms/THE_FOLDER_TO_GET/ PUT: C:\Users\Public\Documents\iMacros\Macros\THE_FOLDER_TO_WRITE A first chance exception of type 'System.Net.WebException' occurred in System.dll </code></pre> <p>MessageBox Output:</p> <pre><code>The requested URI is invalid for this FTP command. </code></pre>
