Thread: GetProduct - Include Images not working

When I use the sample WSI test client and run something like

<AspDotNetStorefrontImport Verbose="false">
<GetProduct ID="382" IncludeVariants="true" IncludeImages="true"/>
</AspDotNetStorefrontImport>

I get an error

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<AspDotNetStorefrontImportResult Version="" DateTime="11/15/2010 2:18:30 PM"><GetProduct ID="382" GUID=""><Error Message="Exception, Message=Could not find a part of the path 'c:\images\Product\icon\DW364.jpg'." /></AspDotNetStorefrontImportResult>

I thought this was supposed to export the image as a BASE64 text to the xml output?

Really need to get this working.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

If you have a source, please do the following changes below and recompile the AspDotNetStorefrontWSI project. Otherwise, send a ticket to support.

file: WSi.cs
method: GetImageData

from:

Code:

if (ImageUrl.Length != 0)
{
FN = CommonLogic.SafeMapPath(ImageUrl);

to:

Code:

if (FN == ImageUrl) 
{
FN = CommonLogic.SafeMapPath("~" + ImageUrl);
} 
}

Alfred,

Thank you very much. I assume you only meant 1 } at the end of your code.

I made those changes (with only 1 } as it would not compile otherwise) and rebuilt ASPNDSFWSI. I then uploaded the file in SOURCE\ASPDNSFWSI\bin\Release\AspDotNetStorefrontW SI.dll to the BIN folder in the root of the website. Is there any other files I need to upload?

Now I get

<Error Message="Exception, Message=Empty path name is not legal." />

with the same call above.

Did I miss another file that is changed with the rebuild of WSI?

Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

I left the if statement alone (I left if (ImageUrl.Length != 0)) and changed the


FN = CommonLogic.SafeMapPath(ImageUrl);

to

FN = CommonLogic.SafeMapPath("~" + ImageUrl);


everything seems to be working now.

Thanks a million.

Here's the correct code for anyone else having this problem.
You just add "~" +

if (ImageUrl.Length != 0)
{
FN = CommonLogic.SafeMapPath("~" + ImageUrl);
}
