Solution 2

please don't use server.mappath

beacause server.mappath indicate your current position in project

and what control you use for save file like fileuploader

I want to save the file in server folder. But not in virtual path.
I want to save in server physical path.

Solution 3

Try

C#

FileUpload1.SaveAs("c:\\SaveDirectory\\" + FileUpload1.FileName);

Here complete example - ASP.NET - File Uploading[^]

But you'll get error if you didn't apply permissions for Write. To do that, check the below page.
