Subject: File Transfer problem

Hi everyone.

For file transfer i used the following code:

using agsXMPP.protocol.iq.oob;
using agsXMPP.protocol.stream.feature.compression;

      private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
      odlgfile.ShowDialog(); //odlgfile is the open file dialog control name


      Oob xit = new Oob();

      Jid to = new Jid("vathan@vathan");

      IQ fiq = new IQ(IqType.set);
      fiq.To = to;
      fiq.From = new Jid("surjith@vathan");
      xit.Url = odlgfile.FileName;
      xit.Description = "test file";
      fiq.AddChild(xit);
      agsXMPP.protocol.client.Message msg = new agsXMPP.protocol.client.Message();

      msg.Type = MessageType.chat;
      msg.To = m_Jid;
      msg.Body = rtfSend.Text;
      _connection.Send(fiq);
      _connection.Send(msg);
      OutgoingMessage(msg);
      rtfSend.Text = "";
      }

here I get the resultant output in the debug window:

SEND: <iq xmlns="jabber:client" type="set" to="vathan@vathan" from="surjith@vathan"><query xmlns="jabber:iq:oob"><url>C:\Documents and Settings\surjith.TURTLEINDIA\Desktop\xmas01_cola2.mpg</url><desc>test file</desc></query></iq>

SEND: <message xmlns="jabber:client" type="chat" to="vathan@vathan/Exodus"><body /></message>

RECV: <iq type="error" from="vathan@vathan" to="surjith@vathan/MiniClient"><query xmlns="jabber:iq:oob"><url>C:\Documents and Settings\surjith.TURTLEINDIA\Desktop\xmas01_cola2.mpg</url><desc>test file</desc></query><error code="503" type="cancel"><service-unavailable xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas"/></error></iq>

regards

Hello,

IQs must always be send to a full Jabber Id. You set the Iq to a bare Jid. This is why the server returns an error.

Why do you send an empty message after your IQ?

You can build your IQ easier when using the OobIq class instead of the Oob class.

You set a local path in the Url property. This is wrong here. It should look like http://mypublicIP/filename.txt
And agsXMPP doesnt transfer the file for you. After sending the IQ you have to open a socket which listens and will transfer the file over the HTTP protocol (small simple webserver). The second client has to download the file from your small webserver by using a simple HttpWebRequest for example.
