add key="profilePicturesFolder"

Hi all
I'm new on this forum
Well i have a headache her I try to figure out
my website is a video streaming website and I allow users to create their profile and upload their profile pictures to the server
i have a dedicated folder on the server for that
I set the folder path in the web.config as follow: <add key="profilePicturesFolder" value="~\\assets\\profile_pictures"/>
and I use it in the code to get the path of that directory. string profilePicturesPath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(CConfig.GetProfilePhotosPath());
So far so good. Now to get the pictures of the users I use the asp.net file upload control.
So When I use the saveAs method of that upload control : photoUpload.PostedFile.SaveAs(profilePicturesPath + "//" + newFileName);
it works fine on my localhost, but sadly does not work on the server.

I really don't understand and Im kinda stuck here, I really need some help gyus

Thanks so lot. In fact this is the url of that page http://www.abidjan4life.net/register.aspx

Thank you for replying Bruce
I finally resolved the issue, there was nothing wrong with my code or the server, it was just that the refresh functionality of fireftp ( the ftp client plugin for firefox) wasn't refreshing properly.
When I rebooted my machine I found all the files I attempted to upload already on the server.
Thank you Bruce
