Hello Oliver,

Instead of using #File.ServerFileName#.#File.ServerFileExt# try simply
using #file.serverfile#.  This should return the name of the file
uploaded and the file's extension. This may help.

Regards

Dave A.

Subject: Problem with .rtf format 


Bonjour ;-)

I have created a collaboration platform where users can upload files.
However, 
whenever I attempt to upload a document in the .rtf format, I get an
error 
message. All other document formats/file extensions work flawlessly.

My form code:

<form name=xxxx method="POST" action="xxxx.cfm"
enctype="multipart/form-data">

and 2 inputs, one for the text:
<input type="text" name="ladat" size="11">
and for the file: 
<input name="fichier" type="file" size="29">

And here is the xxxx.cfm code for the script:

<cflock timeout="60" name="#session.sessionID#">
<cfif #FileExists(form.fichier)# is "NO">
<cfoutput>#form.fichier#</cfoutput> not exist!
<cfabort>
</cfif>
<CFFILE DESTINATION="d:\doc\my directory..."
ACTION="UPLOAD"
FILEFIELD="Fichier"
nameconflict="MAKEUNIQUE">
<cftransaction>
<cfquery DATASOURCE="#Session.xxxx#">
Insert INTO Table (ladate1, nom1)
Values('#form.ladat#', '#File.ServerFileName#.#File.ServerFileExt#')
</cfquery>
</cftransaction>
</cflock>

When I upload a file, my script returns the file name in a variable.
However, in 
the case of .rtf, the variable contains file contents rather than the
file name?! 
Such a file name cannot be found and I get an error 
Do you know what is causing this kind of behavior? Could you point to my

mistake or provide me with a code sample that works?

Thanks in advance,

- Olivier
