I've read several questions explaining how to handle file uploads in asp.net mvc. I am trying to submit both the file as well as form fields describing it. That might be the issue. I'll go write to the code:
View code:
<% using (Html.BeginForm("CreateFile", "Video", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))
{%>
<fieldset>
<legend>Fields</legend>
<p>
<label for="file">Filename:</label>
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" />
</p>
<p>
<label for="Password">Password:</label>
<%= Html.TextBox("Password")%>
<%= Html.ValidationMessage("Password", "*")%>
</p>
<p>
<label for="Description">Description:</label>
<%= Html.TextBox("Description")%>
<%= Html.ValidationMessage("Description", "*")%>
</p>
<p>
<label for="DateUploaded">DateUploaded:</label>
<%= Html.TextBox("DateUploaded")%>
<%= Html.ValidationMessage("DateUploaded", "*")%>
</p>
<p>
<label for="DateRecorded">DateRecorded:</label>
<%= Html.TextBox("DateRecorded")%>
<%= Html.ValidationMessage("DateRecorded", "*")%>
</p>
<p>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</p>
</fieldset>
<% } %>
Controller code:
[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
public ActionResult CreateFile(VideoDTO video, HttpPostedFileBase f) //[Bind(Exclude="VideoId")]
{
foreach (string file in Request.Files)
{
HttpPostedFileBase hpf = Request.Files[file] as HttpPostedFileBase;
if (hpf.ContentLength == 0)
