Hello guys,

I would like to copy an excel file into the server but I couldn't do it...There is no any error but it doesn't copy that.

C#

void FileCopy()
{
  FileInfo pathinfo = FileInfo(Path);
  if(!PathInfo.Exists)
  {
    PathInfo.CopyTo(string path);
   }
}

Is there anyone who can help me here?

Regards

Haluk

Did you check the path, whether it actually exists? Debug the code and see, if debugger hits the line PathInfo.CopyTo(string path)

I suspect that you need to look at your variables:
Path is not the same as path
pathinfo is not the same as PathInfo

And string path creates a new variable, and sets it to null...

C#

PathInfo.CopyTo(string path);

This one is the whole code...:

void FileCopy()
{
FileInfo pathinfo = new FileInfo(Server.MapPath(@"MATBUEVRAK/125/EVRAKLAR.xls"));
if (!pathinfo.Exists)
{
File.Copy(Server.MapPath(@"MATBUEVRAK/EVRAKLAR.xls"), pathinfo.FullName);

}

}

That give you two things to check:
1) Does the source file exist, relative to the ASPX page you are executing?
2) Does the destination file exist, relative to the ASPX page? Because if it does, your code won't copy anything.

Yes, it does... Normally, that code block is working but it doesn't work in the server...

Check permissions - in the server it may be running as a user that does not have write permissions to the folder.

If you use PathInfo.Copy, you are copying the file directories along with the files and sub directory. As per your requirement, you need to copy an excel file.

So, use File.Copy

PathInfo.Copy should work, but I guess, you have specified the filename within the path.

Hope this works.
