Upload file on FTP

Here are sample code to upload file on FTP Server

    string filename = Server.MapPath("file1.txt");
    string ftpServerIP = "ftp.demo.com/";
    string ftpUserName = "dummy";
    string ftpPassword = "dummy";

    FileInfo objFile = new FileInfo(filename);
    FtpWebRequest objFTPRequest;

    // Create FtpWebRequest object 
    objFTPRequest = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri("ftp://" + ftpServerIP + "/" + objFile.Name));

    // Set Credintials
    objFTPRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpUserName, ftpPassword);

    // By default KeepAlive is true, where the control connection is 
    // not closed after a command is executed.
    objFTPRequest.KeepAlive = false;

    // Set the data transfer type.
    objFTPRequest.UseBinary = true;

    // Set content length
    objFTPRequest.ContentLength = objFile.Length;

    // Set request method
    objFTPRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;

    // Set buffer size
    int intBufferLength = 16 * 1024;
    byte[] objBuffer = new byte[intBufferLength];

    // Opens a file to read
    FileStream objFileStream = objFile.OpenRead();

    try
    {
        // Get Stream of the file
        Stream objStream = objFTPRequest.GetRequestStream();

        int len = 0;

        while ((len = objFileStream.Read(objBuffer, 0, intBufferLength)) != 0)
        {
            // Write file Content 
            objStream.Write(objBuffer, 0, len);

        }

        objStream.Close();
        objFileStream.Close();
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        throw ex;
    }

Please make sure your ftp path is set as shown below.

string CompleteDPath = "ftp://www.example.com/wwwroot/videos/";

string FileName = "sample.mp4";

WebRequest reqObj = WebRequest.Create(CompleteDPath + FileName);

The following script work great with me for uploading files and videos to another servier via ftp.

FtpWebRequest ftpClient = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(ftpurl + "" + username + "_" + filename);
ftpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(ftpusername, ftppassword);
ftpClient.Method = System.Net.WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
ftpClient.UseBinary = true;
ftpClient.KeepAlive = true;
System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(fileurl);
ftpClient.ContentLength = fi.Length;
byte[] buffer = new byte[4097];
int bytes = 0;
int total_bytes = (int)fi.Length;
System.IO.FileStream fs = fi.OpenRead();
System.IO.Stream rs = ftpClient.GetRequestStream();
while (total_bytes > 0)
{
   bytes = fs.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
   rs.Write(buffer, 0, bytes);
   total_bytes = total_bytes - bytes;
}
//fs.Flush();
fs.Close();
rs.Close();
FtpWebResponse uploadResponse = (FtpWebResponse)ftpClient.GetResponse();
value = uploadResponse.StatusDescription;
uploadResponse.Close();

You can also use the higher-level WebClient type to do FTP stuff with much cleaner code:

using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
{
    client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpUsername, ftpPassword);
    client.UploadFile("ftp://ftpserver.com/target.zip", "STOR", localFilePath);
}
