file location not found error

neeraj_ 23-May-14 1:34am

i have tried that sir

Bh@gyesh 23-May-14 1:36am

if this is web application then use server.mappath to get file. It will give you application path.

neeraj_ 23-May-14 1:38am

this is windows form application
sir
i have use server.mappath that works fine in web but what this time

Bh@gyesh 23-May-14 1:40am

Use Application.StartupPath

Rao Lokesh 23-May-14 1:42am

Have you tried Application.StartupPath

neeraj_ 23-May-14 1:42am

plz tell me in detail sir how to use application.startupPath

Bh@gyesh 23-May-14 1:43am

Refer http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/uploadfile/mahesh/application-startup-and-executable-path/

if you have doubt let me know

Rao Lokesh 23-May-14 1:44am

Process.Start(Application.StartupPath & "Excel.xls")

Write you image path in place of Excel and check

neeraj_ 23-May-14 1:48am

how this wil find server location

Bh@gyesh 23-May-14 1:50am

It means Your application and image location are on different server? i.e. upload folder is not part of your application?

neeraj_ 23-May-14 1:51am

what me should to do sir ?

Rao Lokesh 23-May-14 1:51am

Application.startuppath file find the server path from where build is running and then just add the folder and file name .......u can test this method process.start to check whether the file is really accessible

Bh@gyesh 23-May-14 1:54am

Lokesh, I think niraj trying to access folder from server which is not part of applicaiton.

Niraj, Can you tell me which error are you getting?

Rao Lokesh 23-May-14 2:04am

just write the complete path in your browser and see if it opens the file ,then past the complete path in your path

Rao Lokesh 23-May-14 2:05am

C:\Users Give Path Like This Your Path Is Wrong

\192.168.2.125\C:\

neeraj_ 23-May-14 2:09am

file location not found

neeraj_ 23-May-14 2:09am

file location not found

Bh@gyesh 23-May-14 2:09am

if you are accessing path with ip address then, that folder must be shared. Do one thing neeraj, Share uploads folder and then try.

neeraj_ 23-May-14 2:12am

share have enabled sir

i access images from that location for web form and that works fine
but i'm totaly unable to do this

Bh@gyesh 23-May-14 2:15am

Can you tell me exactly which error you are getting?
Second thing - try to debug the application and see the path you are getting at runtime is right or wrong? and please paste that path here.

Solution 1

Web Or Window Application

If Web
Just Use System.startup path it will give you the path from where application is running then just add folder and file name

For Exapmle :-
Server.MapPath("~/FileManager/");

Enjoy
