FileTransferDirectory

String (disk-path)

Not specified

Purpose

The FileTransferDirectory parameter specifies the directory to which files are uploaded during Web sessions from JADE applications that accept file input in text boxes on Web pages (by using the webInputType property of a TextBox control with the Web_InputType_File setting to upload a file from a Web session).

This parameter applies only when the Firewall parameter in the [Jadehttp Files] section of the jadehttp.ini file is set to false or it is set to true and the FileTransferDirectory parameter is set to default or to a valid directory. (For details, see "Configuring JadeHttp for Remote Connections", earlier in this section.)

This parameter controls the directory in which any files transferred by using the HTML InputType=file option are placed. (The file transfer directory must be a valid directory that is relative to the virtual directory, or IIS server.)

If you define a value for the FileTransferDirectory parameter, the transfer directory in the same directory as the jadehttp library is neither created nor used. The file transfer directory path cannot be greater than 260 characters. For more details, including the format of the text property value of the TextBox control, see "Controlling the Location of Files Uploaded via a Web Application", earlier in this chapter.
