Library Page needs help

WebGodiva · Jul 10, 2000

I've just published (ftp'd) a test site to my new NT server.  I had a library page set up where people could upload files to a specific directory and then view the library files in the directory.  I keep getting the error that the directory does not exists or that Coldfusion does not recognize the directory.  My code is attached below. Upload_Openfile.cfm  <CFIF Find( '..', URL.ServerFile ) or Find( '/', URL.ServerFile ) > Error: You are not allowed to access this file <CFABORT> </CFIF>  <CFSET LibraryDirectory = "../htdocs/Penndot/Upload"> <CFSET FilePath = "#LibraryDirectory#/#URL.ServerFile#">  <CFSET SeparatorPos = Find( '.', Reverse(URL.ServerFile) )> <CFIF SeparatorPos is 0>  <CFSET FileExt = ''> <CFELSE> <CFSET FileExt = Right( URL.ServerFile, SeparatorPos - 1 )> </CFIF>  <CFIF FileExt is ''> <CFSET FileType = "unknown"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'pdf'> <CFSET FileType = "application/pdf"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'aif'> <CFSET FileType = "audio/aiff"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'aiff'> <CFSET FileType = "audio/aiff"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'art'> <CFSET FileType = "image/x-jg"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'cil'> <CFSET FileType = "application/vnd.ms-artgalry"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'gif'> <CFSET FileType = "image/gif"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'htm'> <CFSET FileType = "text/html"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'html'> <CFSET FileType = "text/html"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'pdf'> <CFSET FileType = "application/pdf"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'doc'> <CFSET FileType = "application/doc"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'wpd'> <CFSET FileType = "application/wpd"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'wk4'> <CFSET FileType = "application/wk4"> <CFELSEIF FileExt is 'xls'> <CFSET FileType = "application/xls"> <CFELSE> <CFSET FileType = "unknown"> </CFIF>  <CFCONTENT TYPE="#FileType#" FILE="#FilePath#" > Upload_filelibrary.cfm <CFSET LibraryDirectory = "../htdocs/Penndot/Upload"> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 FINAL//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="NetObjects Fusion 4.0 for Windows"> <TITLE>Libary of Files on Server</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" LINK="#0000FF" VLINK="#800080" TEXT="#000000" TOPMARGIN=2 LEFTMARGIN=2 MARGINWIDTH=2 MARGINHEIGHT=2> <CFDIRECTORY action="LIST" directory="#LibraryDirectory#" name="GetFiles" > Misc. html coding to make it look pretty. rest of cfml code for this page <CFSET Row = 1> <CFOUTPUT query="GetFiles"> <CFIF Type is "FILE"> <TR bgcolor="#IIf(Row Mod 2, DE('ffffff'), DE('ffffcf'))#"> <TD width=300> Open File <A href="Upload_OpenFile.cfm/#Replace(Name,' ','','ALL')#?ServerFile=#URLEncodedFormat(Name)#">#Name#</A> </TD> <TD>#Size#</TD> <TD nowrap>#DateLastModified#</TD> <CFSET Row = Row + 1> </TR> </CFIF> </CFOUTPUT> <CFOUTPUT> </TR> </CFOUTPUT> Upload_fileactionform.cfm  <CFSET LibraryDirectory = "../htdocs/Penndot/Upload"> <CFSET IsOverwriteEnabled = "YES">  <CFFILE action="UPLOAD" fileField="UploadedFile" destination="#LibraryDirectory#/" nameConflict="MAKEUNIQUE" >  <CFIF Form.ServerFile is ''> <CFSET NewServerFile = File.ClientFile> <CFELSE> <CFSET NewServerFile = Form.ServerFile> </CFIF>  <CFDIRECTORY name="CheckFile" action="LIST" directory="#LibraryDirectory#/" filter="#NewServerFile#" > <CFIF CheckFile.RecordCount is 0 or File.ClientFile is File.ServerFile> <CFSET FileAlreadyExists = "NO"> <CFELSE> <CFSET FileAlreadyExists = "YES"> </CFIF> <cfif not isdefined("session.authenticated&quot

The directory name needs to be a fully qualified path on the drive (example: c:\uploads).  It will not work with relative directories... (../uploads).
