How to upload huge files from Nokia 95 to webserver?

[snehal.chennuru]

I'm trying to upload a huge file from my Nokia N95 mobile to my webserver using Pys60 python code. However the code crashes because I'm trying to load the file into memory and trying to post to a HTTP url. Any idea how to upload huge files > 120 MB to webserver using Pys60.

Following is the code I use to send the HTTP request.

    f = open(soundpath + audio_filename)
    fields = [('timestamp', str(audio_start_time)), ('test_id', str(test_id)), ('tester_name', tester_name), ('sensor_position', str(sensor_position)), ('sensor', 'audio') ]
    files = [('data', audio_filename, f.read())]
    post_multipart(MOBILE_CONTEXT_HOST, MOBILE_CONTEXT_SERVER_PORT, '/MobileContext/AudioServlet', fields, files)
    f.close

hello snehal.chennuru

i am not sure this is going to help in some sense but why dont you try sending the whole data in chunks. Means why dont you divide the whole 120 mb of data.

I think we have some examples at the wiki you can go through that.

Hope that helps you.

Best of luck.

Hi snehal.chennuru

Moreover, the maximum upload size is a configuration parameter for the script language running in your webserver (PHP, for instance).

So, even you have memory in your phone, you may have problems in your webserver. Another idea: you can think about an specific app just for uploading instead using an web service.
