Due to my work at eventpix, I have spent 100s of hours on upload work,
and research and coding. Witango doesn't handle the upload. The
webserver handles the upload from the form, and when the upload is
complete, the webserver hands the file/data in a wrapper over to
witango. So the witango server doesn't even see the uploaded file, until
the upload is complete. So if you are seeing a slow down, it is your
webserver that is slowing things down.

 

What web server are you using, IIS? And which version?

Using the witango file action to upload a 10 mg file seems to take a lot
of witango resources and slows down displaying of other witango pages on
the server.  Looking for a one-step work around.

 

Considering having a webpage to collect file info and have the user use
an ftp client to upload the file, a two step process.

do you mean, witango sends it to ftp server, before saving it on YOUR
server first?

 

If that is what you mean, its not possible, because of the way witango
works with your webserver. The file is completely transferred to the
webserver before being handed over to witango.

 

We have written special upload handlers, to allow progress bar
uploading, and throttling, and other cool features. We do this by
handling the upload byte by byte, this is NOT possible in witango. It is
also not possible in PHP. It is possible with some very low level .net
coding, and it is also possible by creating a CGI script, like in perl
or something.

 

If you submit your upload to a perl cgi, for example, you could write it
to accept data in memory and at the same time connect and send to an FTP
server. This would be very troublesome, and I wouldn't recommend it,
unless you were sure of 100% uptime and great bandwidth up to the ftp
server from the witango server. You would basically be holding/caching
the http upload to cgi in memory as you pull from the memory to the ftp
server.

 

I would think you are better off, investing in larger more reliable
network storage on your server side, accept the entire upload, and then
ftp up to wherever and delete.

Do you mean, the local machine, as in the user hitting the web page, or
the local machine, as in the web server machine, which may be different
from the witango server?

Hi,

 

Has anyone created or found a way to use witango to ftp a file from the
local machine and not the server that witango is setting on?  I can
successfully ftp from the witango server to the ftp site with the
external action but witango can't find the file on my workstation.  I
have found php pages on the web that I may have to use.

 

Of course, I could wait for Witango 6 with its built-in ftp upload.
