I'm trying to make a file upload to the server using Uploadify, but not working the TempData to pass variables between controllers and I have not found an error.
I'm trying passing the variables fileName and file with TempData of the controller "GetFile" to the controller "ModelCreate".
The controller "GetFile" works well, but when I check the value of "date1" and "date2" in the controller "ModelCreate" is null
I just want to make the file saved in the controller "ModelCreate"
public string GetFile(HttpPostedFileBase file)
{
var fileName = this.Server.MapPath("~/Informs/" + System.IO.Path.GetFileName(file.FileName));
if (System.IO.File.Exists(fileName))
return "has been uploaded successfully";
file.SaveAs(fileName);
TempData["NameFile"] = fileName;
TempData["File"] = file;
return "1";
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult ModelCreate(INFORME inform)
{
var date1 = TempData["NameFile"] as string;
var date2 = TempData["File"] as HttpPostedFileBase;
date2.SaveAs(date1);
.
.
.
.
}
Thanks for your help, I'm new to MVC and I just want to upload a file and simultaneously send in the same form others html components for example: textbox, radio button, etc.. How I can do this? if you can help me with a complete example please...

just put
enctype="multipart/form-data"
Html.BeginForm( null, null, FormMethod.Post, new { enctype="multipart/form-data"})
and the browser will post file + others.

TempData saves into the session.
If there is enough time, the session is timed out.
More, are you testing in IIS or in Cassini?

Please replace TempData with Session.
What's the result?

I do not think Session would not work( I have done many sites with MVC and session)
Then you have misconfigured the Session in the website . Do you have cookieless session?
