UploadWebFile SkyDrive .Net API Client

Question

This is my code for uploading database backup file to SkyDrive. Program is breaking at last line, when it is trying to upload with function UploadWebFile. /Backups is folder on SkyDrive. I am using SkyDrive .Net API Client 2.0.2b.

Exception is:

The request was aborted: The request was canceled.

Is it problem with syntax or it is something else, what is solution?

var client = new SkyDriveServiceClient();

client.LogOn("username", "password");

WebFolderInfo webInfo = new WebFolderInfo();
webInfo.Path = "/Backups";

client.UploadWebFile(@"D:\db.bak", webInfo);

Answer 1

Here is solution. Problem was that we cant create WebFolderInfo and give it path manual. We have to reference on folder from WebFolderInfo[] list. For client.Timeout give it big value for big files to have time to upload.

        var client = new SkyDriveServiceClient();

        client.LogOn("username", "password");        
        WebFolderInfo wfInfo = new WebFolderInfo();

        WebFolderInfo[] wfInfoArray = client.ListRootWebFolders();

        wfInfo = wfInfoArray[0];
        client.Timeout = 1000000000;
        client.UploadWebFile(@"D:\db.bak", wfInfo);

Don't think it's a syntax error, but considering that you're talking baout DB backup, I think it's file dimension problem. The maximum size of the file that you can upload to SkyDrive should be something arroung 50MB.

Check the dimension of your file.
