How to send a JSon file to the remote web server using C#

Question

I created an application for the Pharmacy management system using mysql and c#. They have the databases on Local and Remote server also. Basically all records are stored on local database. Then after the newly created records should be uploaded to the remote server using JSon file. I also have the code to execute the Json file data to remote server using php. I have the newly records on Desktop using json file.

JSon file export coding :

    private void btnExportToJson_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string contents = (DataTableToJSONWithStringBuilder(_dt));
        //MessageBox.Show(afd);
        System.IO.File.WriteAllText(@"C:\Users\NICK-PC\Desktop\path.json", contents);
        Application.Exit();
    }

JSon file create coding :

    public string DataTableToJSONWithStringBuilder(DataTable table)
    {
        var jsonString = new StringBuilder();
        if (table.Rows.Count > 0)
        {
            jsonString.Append("[\n");
            for (int i = 0; i < table.Rows.Count; i++)
            {
                jsonString.Append("{\n");
                for (int j = 0; j < table.Columns.Count; j++)
                {
                    if (j < table.Columns.Count - 1)
                    {
                        jsonString.Append("\t\"" + table.Columns[j].ColumnName.ToString() + "\":" + "\"" +
                                          table.Rows[i][j].ToString() + "\",\n");
                    }
                    else if (j == table.Columns.Count - 1)
                    {
                        jsonString.Append("\t\"" + table.Columns[j].ColumnName.ToString() + "\":" + "\"" +
                                          table.Rows[i][j].ToString() + "\"");
                    }
                }

                if (i == table.Rows.Count - 1)
                {
                    jsonString.Append("}");
                }
                else
                {
                    jsonString.Append("\n},");
                    jsonString.Append("\n");
                }
            }

            jsonString.Append("\n]");
        }

        return jsonString.ToString();
    }

I used the following code but does not work

public void jsonOps()
    {
        // Preparing Json object to send to the remote server
        jsonLogin li = new jsonLogin();
        li.username = "myadmin";
        li.password = "log@678*";
        string jLoginString = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(li);

        // Create HTTP POST request
        var httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://www.youraddress.com");
        httpWebRequest.ContentType = "application/json";
        httpWebRequest.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate;
        httpWebRequest.Accept = "application/json";
        httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";

        string output = "";

        // Connecting to the server. Sending request and receiving response
        using (var streamWriter = new StreamWriter(httpWebRequest.GetRequestStream()))
        {
            streamWriter.Write(jLoginString);
            streamWriter.Flush();
            streamWriter.Close();

            var httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
            using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream()))
            {
                output = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
            }
        }

        // Reading JSON response
        JsonTextReader reader = new JsonTextReader(new StringReader(output));
        while (reader.Read())
        {
            if (reader.Value != null)
            {
                textBox1.Text = reader.Value;
            }
            else
            {
                // No value exception block
            }
        }

I use the following code

    private void btnUploadToServer_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        bool connection = NetworkInterface.GetIsNetworkAvailable();
        if (connection == true)
        {
            //MessageBox.Show("Internet Available");

            try
            {
                using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
                {
                    string filePath = @"C:\Users\SAKTHYBAALAN-PC\Desktop\app_sample.json";
                    var myUri = new Uri(@"http://your_address/path/file.php");
                    client.UploadFile(myUri, filePath);
                    client.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
                }
            }
            catch (Exception err)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(err.Message);
            }

            MessageBox.Show("Successfully Uploaded", "Success");
            btnExecuteURL.Enabled = true;
        }

        else
        {
            MessageBox.Show("There is no internet connection.\n Please make sure that you have an internet connection.", "No Internet");
        }
    }
