GroupDocs.Viewer Product Family

Hi

When I passed TIF,pdf,docx format file as filename in avaScript function in Index page,It gives me Exception from Viewer Controller.

Here I am giving FileName from folder which is in ProjectSolution
like D:/File Viewer Demos/GroupDocs.Viewer-for-.NET-master/Showcases/Legacy Front End/Legacy_Front_End/Files/test.pdf

Here exception brakes the code but if I continue i can view file in chrome.

Can anyone suggest me how to solve issue?

Here I have attached snapshot of error for each format separately

Hi alokat,


Thanks for posting your query.

We apologize for inconvenience but I could not reproduce your raised issue. From the exception message it seems that you have modified the path in the project to save resource files. If yes then please make sure that the directory to keep resource files physically exists. Also, please make sure that the file you are passing in javascript must be located in App_Data folder.

Please try the above tips and share your experience.

Warm Regards

No I have not changed path of saving resource.
Also want to confirm that Is it necessary files to be exist in App_Data?

I have still facing same issue mentioned in snapshot with files in App_Data.
I have downloaded code from github from following link
https://github.com/groupdocs-viewer/GroupDocs.Viewer-for-.NET/tree/master/Examples

Hi alokat,


The default storage directory is set to “App_Data” folder in Legacy Front End. If you are using the file name in javascript like filePath: ‘demo.docx’, then it means that demo.docx is located in App_Data folder in the project. Please check whether the file you are loading is located in the storage folder or not. Also, please share the javascript snippet with us.

Warm Regards

Hi alokat,


Thanks for providing the details.

Please do not use complete path of the file like ‘D:/File Viewer Demos/GroupDocs.Viewer-for-.NET-master/Showcases/Legacy Front End/Legacy_Front_Ed/App_Data/test.pdf’ . You need to pass just file name along with the extension like filePath: ‘test.pdf’. It will load test.pdf file which is located in App_Data folder. Please try this and share your experience.

Hi alokat,


Its good to know that your issue is resolved.

Yes, you can change the default storage location of the files in ViewerController.cs file. Please find below code in ViewerController.cs file

// App_Data folder path
private readonly string _storagePath = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetData(“DataDirectory”).ToString();

private readonly string _tempPath = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetData(“DataDirectory”) + “\Temp”;

You can set _storagePath and _tempPath of your choice . Please try and share your experience.
