Can someone post an example on how to upload a large file (eg. 50MB) using NancyFx running in self-hosting mode. The file is expected to be sent from a webpage (method=post; enctype=multipart/form-data).
I found it hard to find documentation on how to upload files in Nancy but this post points to this owin hosting example which I found gave me the info I needed.
This doesn't relate specifically to large files in self hosting, but I figured the info might be useful to someone.

I would like to access the list of all uploads that have been added to a given project on my company GitLab server.
I don't mean versionned files, I mean attached files: binaries and other types of files that have been attached to issues, merge requests, etc.
It's OK if I have to use the API for that.
What I've tried
My first approach was through GET /projects/:id/repository/files/:file_path, but that's for the versionned files.
Then, I found out about POST /projects/:id/uploads, but that's only for uploading and not for listing already uploaded files.
Is there a way to list all those uploaded files?
I believe this is not possible.
There is an open issue for retrieving specific files which has not received much attention:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/55520
Hopefully, in the future, there will eventually be an endpoint
GET /projects/:id/uploads
I had the same question and after getting in touch with gitlab support they confirmed that this is not currently implemented (as of now, November 2021), and forwarded me the 3 following feature requests :
API list all files on a project : https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/197361
Attachment Manager : https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/16229
Retrieve uploaded files using API : https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/25838
A workaround seems to be to export the whole project, and you'll find the uploads in that archive, and you'll be able to list them.
We developed a web application which uses opencmis and a windows client which uses dotcmis. The web application runs behind an apache httpd.
We are facing the following problem:
Small files can be uploaded by the client without problems (< 1,5 gigabytes).
However, if we try to upload larger files, we get a "Proxy Error". The stacktrace does not give any more information.
We also tried to upload via cmis workbench with the same result...
Are there any configuration parameters for apache we maybe overlooked? Or do you think the problem should be searched elsewhere?
EDIT: I should mention, that the file is uploaded completely nevertheless. And also: We tried disable apache, connect via http instead of https and upload a file and it works perfectly.
EDIT2: We found a solution, although it does not seem to be a very good one... We set the following configuration entries in httpd.conf:
Timeout=500 and ProxyTimeout=500. Default value is 60 for these entries.
This solved the problem. However, it would be nice to know, why this problem occures in the first place.

We currently have a site running cold fusion 11. In an effort to improve some aspects of security we would like to store all files uploaded by our users on a server separate from our codebase and DB servers.
I'm pretty much starting from scratch here as I wasn't able to find much in my searches so far. What's the best practice for doing this and what cold fusion functions would work for storing and retrieving files from an external source?
I could use some more information to be more helpful. But let's say you have a separate server that stores all your user files on a Windows network. I would use CFContent to serve those files with the file being retrieved over a UNC path.
I'd recommend reading this blog entry of mine on Securely Serving Files via CFContent. Wil, also from CF Webtools, posts one here: Serving File Downloads with ColdFusion
We had a similar issue when we migrated to a Unix platform. Our solution was to mount a file server to the webserver. It's accessed programmatically by ColdFusion as if it's on the same server, but it's inaccessible from the web root (browser). It's worked very smoothly for us.
Could anybody explain to me the process of uploading to and downloading form and ftp server with the iPhone SDK. If you could just point me in the right direction (e.g. documentation etc.). How difficult is a task like this?
Thanks in advance.
You can use this. It support all the basic ftp operations:
Download file
Upload file
Delete file
Delete directory
Create directory
List directory contents
[DISCLAIMER] I am the developer of the library, I needed a ftp library too in the past and came over this answer. However, I decided to write one myself because s7ftprequest didn't support at that point several operations that I needed.(like download or list directory)

The Apple documentation will provide far more info in general than I could. Have a look at:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/Networking/Conceptual/CFNetwork/CFFTPTasks/CFFTPTasks.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001132-CH9-SW1
which details the FTP information you need. If you prefer a PDF with all the networking info in it, have a look at:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/Networking/Conceptual/CFNetwork/CFNetwork.pdf
In this, you'll be particularly interested in Chapter 5. Both detail working with FTP sites, including uploading, downloading, retrieving directory listings, etc.
s7ftprequest only for uploading files to FTP.
The below is sample code from apple

Limitations:
FTPS (that is, FTP over TLS)
deleting items
renaming items
other less common FTP commands
custom FTP commands
I ended up using GoldRacoon. It turns out that in iOS/objc land, there's BlackRaccoon as the original FTP client lib, then WhiteRaccoon was forked from that, and then GoldRacoon was forked from WhiteRaccoon (I think)
pod search GoldRaccoon
... will show you.
I ended up making a few changes (in my own fork) so that you can pass in a successBlock & failBlock into any request, so that block-y callers (like my classes) don't have extra work to manage the delegate callbacks. Github link (my fork): https://github.com/xaphod/GoldRaccoon
I have a Windows application in .Net 2.0 that uses several levels of configuration files. For reasons out of my control, the application consists of a Windows app (.exe) project and several DLLs, each of which has its own app.config file.
I have successfully figured out how to read the config file for each DLL, using (in C#)
ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration("my DLL's config file path", ConfigurationUserLevel.None);
This works just fine - I can confirm that I get a Configuration object from this method when pointed to the file path name of my DLL's configuration file ("foo.dll.config"). However, when I try to access a custom configuration section, I get an exception saying that the data type for my custom configuration section cannot be found.
What else do I need to do to get the typing information available to my code when loading a configuration file in this manner?
It's unfortunate but true: the way to handle this is to copy the configuration from the .dll.config files into the applications' config file. The only exception has something to do with the Settings system used in Windows Forms. I think that does the OpenMappedConfiguration for you, but I'm not sure.
I've never known why they didn't unify this in .NET 2.0 and solve the problem. Maybe I should ask.
Earlier in the day, I asked a question like this as relates to WCF, in the Oslo Forum on MSDN (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/oslo/thread/c93ee7f3-4f9b-4044-b1f0-43ad72fb508d). As I was searching for a blog post or some other answer (as I said above, "maybe I should ask"), the answer to my Forum post arrived.
Long story short, and somewhat tongue-in-cheek, the answer is: they didn't fix this in .NET 2.0 because they were waiting for Oslo to solve the problem.
Without trying to avoid downvotes by making sense out of that, I'll just mention: Oslo will encourage models of applications and application components to be stored in a central repository. That will include models of per-instance configuration. The theory is that all such data would be stored in a single repository (at least per-system). So, no more question of where the configuration file is located it's all in one place. No more question of finding the assembly containing the configuration section metadata - the metadata is stored in the repository along with the configuration data.
Ask me tomorrow, and I may feel differently, but right now, I may be picking up the Oslo religion...
