Upload with Forms Authentication

Everything uploads fine using IE 7. Firefox and Safari report that upload worked, but the files never actually get uploaded. The server is Win2003 with II6. 

Same problem happens on dev machine (Vista with VS2008). 

I'm using the control as defined in your example and have tried both Flash and Browser upload.

I"m also using forms authentication.

I can make the upload work in Firefox and Safari by turning off Forms Authentication, but of course that's not practical! 

Please help.

You need to bypass Forms Authentication for the control subfolder. Please add the following settings to web.config before </configuration>

  <location path="filevistacontrol">
    <system.web>
      <authorization>
        <allow users="*"/>
      </authorization>
    </system.web>
  </location>
