Datetime format Issue String was not recognized as a valid DateTime C# ASP .Net

Published on: 9:03 AM 0

If this issue happens after the website is uploaded to server and no problem at your local computer, the cause of error is the date format difference of your system and your server

Mostly the error happens for month

consider a date "29/09/2014 20:20:00"

Usually this error occurs at Convert.ToDateTime(DateTimeInStringFormat);

My local computer consider '29' as day and my server consider '29' as a month.

ie. at my local server date format is 'dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss'

and at server it is 'MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss'

There is lot of working solutions i found in a search. I am listing few of them

Sol Using Parse Exact

DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(dr["dateCreated"].ToString().Trim(), 

 "M/d/yyyy h:mm:ss tt", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

//dr["dateCreated"] returns  date from database

Sol Using TryParse

DateTime date4;
string dateString = @"20/05/2012";
bool result = DateTime.TryParse(dateString,out date4); 

the parsing fails, but it will not throw error, rather it returns  

false indicating that the parsing failed.

Sol Using appropriate culture (I got this working)

string dateString = @"20/05/2012";
DateTime date2 = Convert.ToDateTime(dateString,
 System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("hi-IN").DateTimeFormat);

C# Load Image from URL ASP

Published on: 8:18 AM 0

Loading an image from a URL in C# is possible without much code. Downloading images off the internet can be done directly to memory without having to save them as a file. The image in memory can be written to disk later if necessary.



 The Logic Behind   is to wrap the raw data as a Stream. The System.IO namespace in C# has a useful class called MemoryStream. The MemoryStream C# class can be loaded with raw data that will be read like any other "file" stream, except the bytes are in memory.

byte[] imageData = DownloadData(Url); //Url is image link
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(imageData);
Image img = Image.FromStream(stream);
stream.Close();

 string saveImagePath = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("../media/full/")  + "image.jpg"; 

 img.Save(saveImagePath, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);

How to set read write permission to directory in C#.NET

Published on: 12:31 AM 0

While working with files and directory we need read write permission on files and folders, this can be done by manually giving access permission to directory as well as programmatically.

private static void SetPermissions(string dirPath)

{

    DirectoryInfo info = new DirectoryInfo(dirPath);

    WindowsIdentity self = System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();

    DirectorySecurity ds = info.GetAccessControl();

    ds.AddAccessRule(new FileSystemAccessRule(self.Name,

    FileSystemRights.FullControl,

    InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit |

    InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit,

    PropagationFlags.None,

    AccessControlType.Allow));

    info.SetAccessControl(ds);

}




 read-only on access on file

FileInfo myFile = new FileInfo(files.FullName);

myFile.IsReadOnly = false;

  File with Read Write permission

FileStream F = new FileStream("test.dat", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite);
