Uploading File using FtpWebRequest

For those people who are interested to use FtpWebRequest to upload files on a server. Here is the code:

 

 

FtpWebRequest ftpRequest;
FtpWebResponse ftpResponse;
    
try
{
    //Settings required to establish a connection with the server
    this.ftpRequest = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri("ftp://ServerIP/FileName"));
    this.ftpRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
    this.ftpRequest.Proxy = null;
    this.ftpRequest.UseBinary = true;
    this.ftpRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("UserName", "Password");
    
    //Selection of file to be uploaded
    FileInfo ff = new FileInfo("File Local Path With File Name");//e.g.: c:\\Test.txt
    byte[] fileContents = new byte[ff.Length];
    
    using (FileStream fr = ff.OpenRead()) //will destroy the object immediately after being used
    { 
       fr.Read(fileContents, 0, Convert.ToInt32(ff.Length));
    }
 
    using (Stream writer = ftpRequest.GetRequestStream())
    {
       writer.Write(fileContents, 0, fileContents.Length);
    }
 
    this.ftpResponse = (FtpWebResponse)this.ftpRequest.GetResponse(); //Gets the FtpWebResponse of the uploading operation
    Response.Write(this.ftpResponse.StatusDescription); //Display response
}
catch (WebException webex)
{
   this.Message = webex.ToString();
}
