[SOLVED] File is Not Moving

[jazz2k8]

i wants to move a file from one location to another location , Here is my code

Quote:

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class upload extends HttpServlet
{

public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, java.io.IOException {


response.setContentType("text/html");
java.io.PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
String path=request.getParameter("Jazz");
File f=new File(path);
String s=f.getAbsolutePath();
File file = new File(s);

// Destination directory
File dir = new File("D:\\moved");

// Move file to new directory
boolean success = file.renameTo(new File(dir, file.getName()));
if (!success) {
System.out.println("File is not moved");
}



}
}

Can you help me...

I didn't check your code. Did you try with renameTo() option?

[jazz2k8]

yeah ..please check my code....

Try this.

From this part of your code:

Code:

// Destination directory
File dir = new File("D:\\moved");

// Move file to new directory
boolean success = file.renameTo(new File(dir, file.getName()));
if (!success) {
System.out.println("File is not moved");

TO this:

Code:

// Destination directory
File dir = new File("D:\\moved\\" + file.getName());

// Move file to new directory
boolean success = file.renameTo(dir);
if (!success) {
System.out.println("File is not moved");

^_^ i hope that helps

You know, that is a long way away from a file upload. If by "move" a file, you mean upload it from the client, and "move" it to the server, you are no where's close to where you want to be. And if that is not what you mean then "upload" is very bad name for your class (which it does not stick to the standard naming conventions anyway, but that's another complaint).

I can't vouch for the quality of this site, but if file uplaod is what you really want, try this Java Servlet / JSP File Upload: Parse HTML / XHTML Form Data. Set Maximum File Size

Like I said, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to "move" a file from the client to the server? If so, this doesn't even come close to what you want. Read that tutorial.

If it is that you want to move a file from one directory on the client to another directory on the client , you can't do that either.

If you want to "move" a file from the server to the client, that is called a download and still cannot be accomplished by this code, in that case, simply give a link to it, and let the client decide where, and how, to save it.

If you want to move a file from one directory on the server to another directory on the server, then this will work, as long as the user under which the web container process is running has access to those directories.

I am developing a web application which includes upload a file using browse option from client and upload it into server location..

i read ur link and let you know.
