Hi,

I have an .jpeg file in the application folder, to access that file I have given the path as "../image1.jpeg". Its working fine when I am executing it.
but at the time of deployment, I could see the error "Could not find the part of path "../image1.jpeg" ".

The application is in windows application.
I have tried in google but I couldn't get correct solution

Please let me know, how can I access that path at the time of deployment.

Did you use Server.MapPath ?

The application is a windows application

You said your application in Windows application. What you mean by deployment? are you creating exe of your project?

I mean to say, I have published the application and I was ruuning the .application file from the published folder, there I could see the error

check in your published folder, that your image folder exists or not? Also check for your image in that folder.

Yes, images folder exist and image1.jpeg also exist in it, with extension .deploy added to it
i.e images1.jpeg.deploy

Solution 1

Use the Startup Path and place the image relative to this path.
E.g. string exePath = Application.StartupPath + "\image";

Prefer System.IO.Path.Combine() over string concatenation.
