Hello all,

I m uploading the client's image to a server folder and I save that link to the database. The image is loaded using FileUpload and saved to a specific server folder and the path is saved to the database. But the image can not be displayed in an image control while uploading the photo. How can I fix this?

Here is my code:

C#

s= browser.FileName.ToString() ;
//photoid.ImageUrl = s;
photoid1.Src = s;
if ((this.browser.PostedFile != null) && (this.browser.PostedFile.ContentLength > 0))
{
     FileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(browser.PostedFile.FileName);
     //SaveLocation = Server.MapPath("PhotoId")+"\\" + FileName;
    SaveLocation ="D:\\Sagar\\Bulk Transportation\\Bulk Transportation\\PhotoId\\"+ FileName;
    
    this.browser.PostedFile.SaveAs(SaveLocation);
    //photoid.ImageUrl = SaveLocation;//this.browser.PostedFile.FileName;
    //photoid1.Src = SaveLocation;
}
    btnloadimage.Text = "Save Image";
    if (s != "")
    {
        browser.Visible = false;
        btnloadimage.Text = "Load Photo";
    }

Have you checked that the destination directory has sufficient access rights and that web.config for the entire directory tree will allow it?

You should have either the folder where you place the images accessible from the client, or you have created one Image Handler to write the contents of the image directly in the response.

Place the images just under any folder within your virtual directory. Your client can access it.

See, if your src = "/images/x.jpg"
it accesses a folder images just under your published folder.

If you write
src="D:\docs\x.jpg"

No meaning to the client.

:cool:

Still have confusion, let me know.
