I am uploading a video to server with post method. but there is problem that it is not received by server.

her my code for posting a video.

NSString *post=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"domain=%@,key=%@,email=%@,password=%@,category=%@,sub_category=%@,title=%@,photoimg-videos=%@,keywords=%@,language=%@,country=%@",domain,key,emailgetinvid,passgetinvid,category,btn_ctgry.currentTitle,txt_bobltag.text,videopathget,txt_description.text,btn_lang.currentTitle,btn_cntry.currentTitle];

NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%lu", (unsigned long)[post length]];

NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"my url"]cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringCacheData timeoutInterval:20.0];

NSString *boundary = @"---------------------------14737809831466499882746641449";
NSString *contentType = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"multipart/form-data; boundary=%@",boundary];

[request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];

Use AFNetworking because its easy and here the code goes for AFNetworking.

AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
manager.requestSerializer = [AFHTTPRequestSerializer serializer];
manager.responseSerializer = [AFJSONResponseSerializer serializer];

AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation = [manager POST:@"Your url" parameters:parameters constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData> formData) {
    [formData appendPartWithFileData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:@"This will be name with path of the file you saved in directory"] name:@"the key by which you are receiving the file in server" fileName:@"The name you want for the file when its received in server." mimeType:@"image/png"];
} success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
    APILog(@"response - %@",responseObject);
    success(responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
    APILog(@"\nresponse -  = %@",operation.responseString);
    APILog(@"\nresponse description - %@",error.description);
    success(nil);
}];

[operation start];
