Now doing the same thing manually.. 3 FTPs :-((

Too time consuming...

"As my site is hosted on shared hosting server, I will not be granted with the execute CMD rights "

But they say they have ASPSMARTUPLOAD Component.

Any sample code available to uplood file from one server to another ?

In other words :

Is it possible to upload a file from one server in which the aspsmartupload runs to another secured server(which also runs ASPSmartUpload).

Is the destination server always going to be the same ?

How about this as a solution - do it the opposite way.

1. User triggers the transfer of files on server 1.
2. Server1 sends a http request using the XMLHTTP component to Server 2 i.e. opens a webpage in this format http://server2/get.asp?url1=http://server1/file1.zip&url2=http://server1/file2.html&url3=http://server1/file3.asp
3. get.asp on server 2 uses the XMLHttp component to retrieve the three files and saves them using FSO wherever you like on server 2

This should work in most cases as it uses port 80 over http. Its likely that the xmlHTTP component is already installed on your server.

Actually, you could probably use the xmlhttp component to post data to another page. I'll post an example if I can find one.

What kind of data are you transferring ?

Simple text files.

But XMLHttp confused me ... Sorry never worked with it..

Here's a good example of posting.

http://www.earthskater.net/devzone/asp/xmlhttp_post.asp

You could try POST-ing the files to the receiver as in the example above but I think that sending the url to the files which the receiver can retrieve is a more robust option.

I tried the example.

Sent 1 and get the value back..

Good One..

But any example showing how to upload a file from one server to another will definitely help.

Assuming you have three files on server 1 called file1, file2 and file3.
You then notify receiver 1, receiver 2 and receiver 3 than file1, file2 and file 3 are ready by opening these three pages

http://receiverServer1/Receiver.asp?url=http://server1/file1.asp
http://receiverServer2/Receiver.asp?url=http://server1/file2.asp
http://receiverServer3/Receiver.asp?url=http://server1/file3.asp

None of this code is tested. Its meant for illustration purposes only.


<% 
 ' Intruduce the url you want to visit 
 'GotothisURL = "http://www.asptutorial.info"  ' not used
 ' Create the xml object 
 Set GetConnection = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") 
 ' Conect to specified URL 
 GetConnection.Open "get", "http://receiverServer1/Receiver.asp?url=http://server1/file1.asp", False 
 GetConnection.Send  
 ResponsePage = GetConnection.responseText 
 Response.write (ResponsePage) ' Should be "Success"
GetConnection.Open "get", "http://receiverServer1/Receiver.asp?url=http://server1/file2.asp", False 
 GetConnection.Send 
 ResponsePage = GetConnection.responseText 
 Response.write (ResponsePage) ' Should be "Success"
GetConnection.Open "get", "http://receiverServer1/Receiver.asp?url=http://server1/file3.asp", False 
 GetConnection.Send  ResponsePage = GetConnection.responseText 
 Response.write (ResponsePage) ' Should be "Success"

 Set GetConnection = Nothing 
 %>

Receiver.asp should be something similar.

<% 
 ' Intruduce the url you want to visit 
 GotothisURL = Request.QueryString("url")  
 ' Create the xml object 
 Set GetConnection = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") 
 ' Conect to specified URL 
 GetConnection.Open "get", GotothisURL, False 
 GetConnection.Send  

 ' ResponsePage is the response we will get when visiting GotothisURL 
 ResponsePage = GetConnection.responseText 

' Write the page as a file using the File SYstem Object Here
' Your FSO code

' We will write  
 Response.write ("Success") 

 Set GetConnection = Nothing 
 %>

Obviously you WILL need to think about security. i.e. you don't want just anyone to be able to upload files through your receiver.asp. You could request a username and password via querystring or only allow certain i.p. addresses to upload files.

Yes as 3rd party servers are secured server and it requires username and password before we can upload file.

You can supply authentication by adding the username password combination like so;

GetConnection.Open "get", "http://receiverServer1/Receiver.asp?url=http://server1/file1.asp", False, "username", "password"
