.NET Chart controls from MS, how do i set the temp directory?

[Rahul.Dhingra]

I get the following error on the pages which use the chart controls:

<Message>Invalid temp directory in chart handler configuration [~\ChartImages\].</Message>


I have already uploaded teh System.Web.Visualization dll to the bin folder, and that is configured correctly else my application wouldnt load due to a config error.

I have the following configuration added to the web.config
<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;dir=ChartImages/;" />

What i really want to know is what the value of the dir variable should be in case of hosting it on a shared server with discountasp.net

Here's mine:
<appSettings>
<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;Url=~/chartTmpImages/;"/>
</appSettings>

That's working fine here on my discountASP.NET hosted web application. It looks to me like you need to be using Url= instead of dir=
