Downloading a File From the Embedded Web Server

[Justin Reina]

Hello all,

This question may appear simple; however I have hung on it for quite some time now.

I have a Database Viewer VI that is published with the Web Server. I would like a remote client using the embedded web server to be able to download a file from my main computer.

My experience with networking tools is slowly growing; but I cannot seem to determine how to interact with the client's computer. Any ideas, or suggestions where to look?

Thanks,

Justin Reina

I don't know how you can do it through the web server, but if you have the LV internet toolkit, you can use the ftp VI's to build your own download solution.

Those VI's and pallets haven't been updated in years so they are a bit clunky to use, with absolutely unhelpful documentation.

Neville.
