  IIS Hosted application giving error while reading a word document.

  Apr 25, 2012 05:13 AM|LINK

  Hi,
  My application is in asp.net mvc3 coded in C#.Net.Im using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass to read the word document and

  PdfBox dll's  to read the .Pdf to display in a textbox using ViewBag.

  Below is my code to read word document.

  foreach (string inputTagName in Request.Files)
              {
                  HttpPostedFileBase Infile = Request.Files[inputTagName];
                  if (Infile.ContentLength > 0 && (Path.GetExtension(Infile.FileName) == ".doc") || (Path.GetExtension(Infile.FileName) == ".docx") || (Path.GetExtension(Infile.FileName) == ".rtf"))
                  {
                      filePath = Path.Combine(
                      AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory,
                      Path.GetFileName(Infile.FileName));
                      if (System.IO.File.Exists(filePath))
                      {
                          System.IO.File.Delete(filePath);
                      }
                      Infile.SaveAs(filePath);
                      Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass wordApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass();
                      string filePath1 = filePath;
                      object file = filePath1;
                      object nullobj = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
                      object objReadonly = false;
                      Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document doc = wordApp.Documents.Open(ref file,
                                                                   ref nullobj, ref objReadonly, ref nullobj, ref nullobj, ref nullobj,
                                                                   ref nullobj, ref nullobj, ref nullobj, ref nullobj, ref nullobj,
                                                                   ref nullobj);
                      Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document doc1 = wordApp.ActiveDocument;
                      string m_Content = doc1.Content.Text;
                      Resumes = m_Content;
                      ViewBag.test = m_Content;
                      doc.Close(ref nullobj, ref nullobj, ref nullobj);
                    
                  }

                  ///My code to read .Pdf
                  else if (Infile.ContentLength > 0 && (Path.GetExtension(Infile.FileName) == ".pdf"))
                  {
                      filePath = Path.Combine(
                      AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory,
                      Path.GetFileName(Infile.FileName));
                      if (System.IO.File.Exists(filePath))
                      {
                          System.IO.File.Delete(filePath);
                      }
                      Infile.SaveAs(filePath);
                      PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(filePath);
                      PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
                      string Pdftext = stripper.getText(doc);
                      Resumes = Pdftext;
                      ViewBag.test = Pdftext;
                  }
                  else
                  {
                      ViewBag.test = "Format Not Supported";
                  }
              }

  This code is doing great when i run on my local system..

  But when i Host my application on IIS and Test it.Its giving me error while reading the word document.

  The Error is Sorry, an error occurred while processing your request.im getting error while reading .Pdf as well as .docx/.doc
  Please suggest.

  My application reads two file formats.Word(.doc/.docx) and Pdf (.Pdf).

  When i run the source of my application then there is no issue.Its reading both the formats.

  But when i host the application on IIS then i get the error Sorry, an error occurred while processing your request.

  And there is MS-Office as well as Adobe Reader Installed on the hosted machine

  make a try/catch and on catch write the error stack trace ( return Content( ex.stacktrace))
  Be sure to compile and deploy on debug.
