using ftpWebRequest with an error: the remote server returned error 530 not logged in
c#, ftpwebrequest
Solution
Shouldn't the line:
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("dev\ftp", "devftp");
be:
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("dev\\ftp", "devftp");
or:
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(@"dev\ftp", "devftp");
I have to believe this may be causing your issues because the \f is a form feed character.
Problem
I am trying to use the ftpWebRequest in c# my code is ``` // Get the object used to communicate with the server. FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("ftp://192.168.20.10/file.txt"); request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile; // This example assumes the FTP site uses anonymous logon. request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("dev\ftp", "devftp"); // Copy the contents of the file to the request stream. StreamReader sourceStream = new StreamReader(@"\file.txt"); byte[] fileContents = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sourceStream.ReadToEnd()); sourceStream.Close(); request.ContentLength = fileContents.Length; request.UsePassive = true; Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream(); requestStream.Write(fileContents, 0, fileContents.Length); requestStream.Close(); FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); Console.WriteLine("Upload File Complete, status {0}", response.StatusDescription); response.Close(); ``` and I get an Error in request.GetRequestStream(); the error is: the remote server returned error 530 not logged in if I try to go in to a browser page and in the url I write ftp://192.168.20.10/ the brows page is asking me for a name and password, I put the same name and password and I see all the files and folders in the ftp folder.
