Receive a Large File At the Server

[rodrigo]

I wan´t to write a server wich receives large files posted from a browser.

Is there any example regarding this scenario ?

thanks

If your connection to the Server is expected to be stable enough to handle the complete upload without breaking, take a look at the QuickStart\BrowserUpload example which is included in the RTC SDK.

But please note that using a Browser with its standard FORM-POST mechanism to upload very large files over the Internet is a really bad idea because the FORM-PORT format does NOT support upload resuming, which means that a broken upload will need to be re-sent from the 1st byte.

In other words, if you need a way to upload very large files to your Server over the Internet, using a Browser with its standard built-in upload mechanisms is most definitely not the way to go.

Hi Daniel, I need to upload files about 2 MB large, I think that example you´ve mentioned will do the trick for me.

Thanks!

Yep. Unless you are on a *really* bad mobile connection, files below 10 MB in size should be no problem at all for a Browser and the standard FORM POST method.
