Hi,

I'm using DNN 4.8, hosted by GoDaddy.

I tried to use a FileWriter to modify a file on the server but since GoDaddy is a medium trust, it throws security... exception.

I've seen 3rd party modules like Bi4ce's GoMap able to write to a file (config), and read from the file within the same website.

How do I do this? I have to be able to modify/append to an existing file.

I hope this makes sense. Thank you for your help.

Hi,

I didn't use FileStream but I figured out the problem:

1. Have to use Server.MapPath to map into a physical location to write file to.

2. Don't use IO.File, use IO.StreamWriter <- works.

Sample code:

Dim writer As System.IO.StreamWriter = New System.IO.StreamWriter( _"~/" & localSetupFolder & "/" & setupFileName & ".txt"))"Testing")

Server.MapPath(

writer.WriteLine(

writer.Flush()

writer.Close()
