I want to try to save an image in a folder in my application
Using file upload....but it not working

{
//get the file name of the posted image
string imgName = FileUpload1.FileName.ToString(); //////LINE 2 or //string
//imgName=FileUpload1.Postedfile.FileName.ToString() this also not working
//give nothing in imgName
//sets the image path
string imgPath = "ImagesUploaded/" + imgName;
//then save it to the Folder
FileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(imgPath));

//get the size in bytes that
int imgSize = FileUpload1.PostedFile.ContentLength;

//validates the posted file before saving
if (FileUpload1.PostedFile != null && FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName != "")
{
if (FileUpload1.PostedFile.ContentLength > 5120) // 5120 KB means 5MB
{
Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(typeof(Page), "Alert", "alert('File is too big')", true);
}
else
{
//save the file
//Call the method to execute Insertion of data to the Database
ExecuteInsert(imgName, imgSize, imgPath);
Response.Write("Save Successfully!");

What is the error? Is it something like specified path is not found? Or null reference error?

string s2 = Server.MapPath("");
string s3 = s2 + "\\" + "ImagesUploaded" + "\\" + s11;
FileUpload1.SaveAs(s3);

Image2.ImageUrl = "~/ImagesUploaded/" + s11;

I still do not understand what is the exception since you like a closed box explaining the problem but here is my shot as far as I understand.
HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~\\Images Uploaded\\" + s11);
-or-
HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(".\\Images Uploaded\\" + s11);

i have used it once same as u except FileUpload1.FileName.ToString(); this i have used FileUpload1.FileName;

for exmpal

C#

string img = Server.MapPath("/WebSiteName/FolderName_where_To_savePhotos/");
        img += FileUpload1.FileName;
        FileUpload1.SaveAs(img);

or try

C#

string fileName = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
                   FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/WebSiteName/FolderName_where_To_savePhotos/") + fileName);

u also have take care of same name of photos....for that also use some logic
