asp.net mvc crazy error
- by bongoo
Hi there im having a weird error which is related to an earlier post , I am checking if a file exists before downloading. This works for pdf's but not for any other type of document
here is my controller action and the typical path for a pdf and a powerpoint file , the powerpoint does not work
~/Documents//FID//TestDoc//27a835a5-bf70-4599-8606-6af64b33945d/FIDClasses.pdf
~/Documents//FID//pptest//ce36e7a0-14de-41f3-8eb7-0d543c7146fe/PPttest.ppt
[UnitOfWork]
public ActionResult Download(int id)
{
Document doc = _documentRepository.GetById(id);
if (doc != null)
{
if (System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath(doc.filepath)))
{
_downloadService.AddDownloadsForDocument(doc.document_id, _UserService.CurrentUser().user_id);
return File(doc.filepath, doc.mimetype, doc.title);
}
}
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
