Uploading and Deleting files through FTP in Asp.Net

Uploading and Deleting files through FTP

In this article I am showing you to upload and delete files using File Transfer Protoclol(FTP) in Asp.net.

For Uploading

private bool UploadToFTP(string strFTPFilePath, string strLocalFilePath, string strUserName, string strPassword)
    {


        try
        {
            //Create a FTP Request Object and Specfiy a Complete Path
            FtpWebRequest reqObj = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(strFTPFilePath);


            //Call A FileUpload Method of FTP Request Object
            reqObj.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;


            //If you want to access Resourse Protected,give UserName and PWD
            reqObj.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(strUserName, strPassword);


            // Copy the contents of the file to the byte array.
            byte[] fileContents = File.ReadAllBytes(strLocalFilePath);
            reqObj.ContentLength = fileContents.Length;


            //Upload File to FTPServer
            Stream requestStream = reqObj.GetRequestStream();
            requestStream.Write(fileContents, 0, fileContents.Length);
            requestStream.Close();
            FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)reqObj.GetResponse();
            response.Close();
        }


        catch (Exception Ex)
        {
            Response.Write(Ex);
            //throw Ex;
        }
        return true;
    }

In this method there are four parameters. First is strFTPFilePath , which shows the path of file where it is to be upload, second is strLocalFilePath whis shows the local path of that file.Third and fourth are the username and password of  FTP server.

for calling this method 


UploadToFTP("ftp://209.44.125.59/html/file/images/" + fillename, path, "Userweb", "mnjioeewv!&%");

For Uploading

private void DeleteFTP(string strFTPFilePath, string strUserName, string strPassword)

    {

        FtpWebRequest requestFileDelete = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(strFTPFilePath);

        requestFileDelete.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(strUserName, strPassword);

        requestFileDelete.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DeleteFile;

        FtpWebResponse responseFileDelete = (FtpWebResponse)requestFileDelete.GetResponse();

    }

for calling this method

DeleteFTP("ftp://209.44.125.59/html/file/images/" + filename, "Userweb4729", "mnjioeewv!$%");

I hope this will help you in uploading and deleting files through FTP.
