File upload Save as problem

What happens if you drop the ~ from the path?


Jim

 

Thanks for the reply Jim





I took out the ~and a different error occurs and i'm not sure why it now wants to find C:\ which is obvously wrong. How to I get the fileupload.saveas to a specified folder on DASP. I noticed that I have to upload folder higher than my secure folder so mywebsite/upload/ as opposed to mywebsite/secure/addphoto.aspx. Does that matter???





Do I need to reference the http:// or even the htdoc?





Help i'm stuck with this one.








thanks steve

Hi

I have developed an application that uploads images to a folder on DASP server. Application works fine when running on my local computer but when try and upload to /upload/ folder I get and error.


The SaveAs method is configured to require a rooted path, and the path '~/upload/picture.jpg' is not rooted. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

The upload folder is just under my site root so I assumed ~/upload/..... would find it but apparently not.





Please can you direct me to either a reosurce with instructions on how to root this file Saveas.. method


or


Help me with the code .


Many thanks





Steve

 

I've had the same problem..




FileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/upload/")+ FileUpload1.FileName);


this works great.. i think youwrote '&' the place of '+' accidently..
