ASP.Net: Context.Server.MapPath method

carrzkis...

I wanted to see where it was trying to send the file, so I did the following.

Response.Write((Context.Server.MapPath(savethPath) & "\") + getFile & "<hr />")

And this was the output running in VS, and I could just imagine the IIS string would be the address to the website folder itself.

G:\VS-Projects\VB\Upload2\2\2\ShareName\Images\LoggedUser\Thumbs\06405040312022395.png

I am not entirely sure WHY I had the Context.Server.MapPath() there. But it caused me nearly 12 hours of headache.

The MapPath method maps the specified relative or virtual path to the corresponding physical directory on the server.

Parameter : Path

It specifies the relative or virtual path to map to a physical directory.

If Path starts with either a forward (/) or backward slash (\), the MapPath method returns a path as if Path were a full, virtual path.

If Path doesn't start with a slash, the MapPath method returns a path relative to the directory of the .asp file being processed.
