System.IO.File.WriteAllText() not working in live host website.
Working code in local:

C#

DataTable dt = ds.Tables[0];
dt.TableName ="event";
string XMLDT = PLWM.Utils.CnvDataTableToXml(dt, false);         
System.IO.File.WriteAllText(@"D:\Works\TrueCallWEB\TrueCallWeb\Calendar-Monthly\events.xml", XMLDT);

but in live actual path is http://trucall.in/Calendar-Monthly/events.xml

i wrote code as

C#

System.IO.File.WriteAllText(@"Calendar-Monthly/events.xml", XMLDT);

but its not working

What I have tried:

System.IO.File.WriteAllText(@"Calendar-Monthly/events.xml", XMLDT);

In addition to it possibly being permissions, if you want to write to a file inside your web space you should use MapPath to work out what the physical path should be;

Server.MapPath("~/yourfolder/yourfile.txt")

What do you mean it is not working? You'll get an error. I'm going to guess the error is a permissions issue. Most hosters will not by default set your app up so that it has permissions to write to their file system.

You'll have to contact them directly and ask for some space to store files on.

events.xml file is my own no need of permissions

Of course you need permissions. You said you are trying to write a file to your hoster's server.

For permissions what i have to do.

Ask your hoster.
