Solution 1

it seems like you do not give proper path when you host your application. Generally this error will occur if you are one level up when you map folder with IIS.

Solution 2

Hi Kavita,

It seems your folder donot have proper security rights to save and delete file using application.

You may need to provide security right to folder in which you save uploaded file.

Hi Kavita,

Please just kindly convert your folder to application, it will solve your problem. Please just go to IIS--> domain--> your folder--> right click and then convert it to application. Hope it helps
