File upload path issue

Hi,

I thing you should first copy the file you upload into server
upload location.
Let say that in your application root assembly you have a sub directory
\UploadFiles.

Example code:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (this.FileUpload1.HasFile)
        {
            this.FileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/UploadFiles/" +
                this.FileUpload1.FileName.ToString()));
            string uploadedFile = (Server.MapPath("~/UploadFiles/" +
                this.FileUpload1.FileName.ToString()));
        }
    }

Then the file you've uploaded will be copy into your
\UploadFiles directory.

See value of uploadedFile variable in above sample:

C:\Testing\UploadFiles\mcts.JPG

Otherwise if you do not copy this into you map server
after publishing your application you will encounter
an error.

Hope this could help.

hi,
file uploader do not returns path removing path slashes, they way you are retrieving path might me wrong.You should know where your application is saving files, if so getting full path name is easy,

String filename=fileup1.PostedFile.FileName;

this actually returns the client filename. Meaning the path to the specified file.
Supposed your app save all files under C:\UPLOADED_FILES\ in server.
then full file name will be

String filename="C:\UPLOADED_FILES\"+fileup1.PostedFile.FileName;

so you have the full path now.
