winHTTP Upload Binary Data

[autoituser123]

Hello Guru

I'm trying to upload binary Data to a sample test web site.

I do FileRead($file_to_upload,16) and post uploading using WinHTTP routine.

The file is uploaded but corrupted. The fileRead function skips Null character and makes the file corrupted.

Any idea?

Thank you so much.

are you making sure to url encode the data before transmitting it?

if so you may want to try converting it to hex before uploading so that everything in the data is then represented by a number,then using php to turn it back into binary on the server side.

BTW, fileread is not skipping anything thats simply not possible, the issue is in your handling of the data.

hope this helps

Code sample definately required. A flag of 16 for binary usage is used with FileOpen(), not FileRead(). Using it with FileRead() will only read the first 16 characters.

Hello

Thanks for all replies.

@IchBistTod, I'm not clear about how to convert it to hex before uploading so that everything in the data is then represented by a number,then using php to turn it back into binary on the server side. When I use FileRead, it's something like 0x332330x343333 ... For PHP, I find only number conversion functions like bin2hex, hexdec not data format conversion.

Here's my code:

expandcollapse popup

#include "WinHTTP.au3"

#include <IE.au3> 


$LocalIP = "localhost"
$PostURL = "/upload_php.php"
$hw_open = _WinHttpOpen()

$hw_connect = _WinHttpConnect($hw_open, $LocalIP)

$h_openRequest = _WinHttpOpenRequest($hw_connect, "POST", $PostURL)
$upfile = "test.jpg";
$upsize = FileGetSize($upfile)

$file = FileOpen($upfile , 16)

; Check if file opened for reading OK
If $file = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf

; Read in lines of text until the EOF is reached
$line = ""

While 1
    $line &= FileReadLine($file) 
    If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop
Wend

FileClose($file)

$upcontent = $line

$data = "-----------------------------41184676334" & @CRLF &  'Content-Disposition: form-data; name="userfile"; filename="' & $upfile & '"' & @CRLF &   'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' & @CRLF & @CRLF &  $upcontent & @CRLF & '-----------------------------41184676334--' & @CRLF 

_WinHttpAddRequestHeaders($h_openRequest,"Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------41184676334")

_WinHttpSendRequest($h_openRequest,$WINHTTP_NO_ADDITIONAL_HEADERS, $WINHTTP_NO_REQUEST_DATA, StringLen($data), 0)

_WinHttpWriteData($h_openRequest, $data)

_WinHttpReceiveResponse($h_openRequest)

$oIE=_IECreate ()
_IEDocWriteHTML ( $oIE, _WinHttpReadData($h_openRequest))


_WinHttpCloseHandle($h_openRequest)

_WinHttpCloseHandle($hw_connect)

_WinHttpCloseHandle($hw_open)

Try this: #610967

When I run your

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_id=23306

I got

post_upload2.au3 (216) : ==> Incorrect number of parameters in function call.:

Local $szExt = StringLower(StringRegExpReplace(".*(?:\.([^.\\/]*))?\Z","$1"))

Local $szExt = StringLower(^ ERROR

[ProgAndy]

Oops, replace

Local $szExt = StringLower(StringRegExpReplace(,".*(?:\.([^.\\/]*))?\Z","$1"))

with

Local $szExt = StringLower(StringRegExpReplace( $path ,".*(?:\.([^.\\/]*))?\Z","$1"))
