    string FileName = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
    //string path = Server.MapPath(@"~\\"+Session["parentfolder"].ToString() +"\\"+ Session["brandname"].ToString() + "\\" + Seasonfolders.SelectedItem.Text + "\\" + stylefolders.SelectedItem.Text + "\\Images\\" + FileName);
    string root = Server.MapPath("~");
    string path = Path.GetDirectoryName(root);
    string path1 = Path.GetDirectoryName(path);
    string rootfolder = Path.GetDirectoryName(path1);
    string imagepath = rootfolder + Session["brandname"].ToString() + "\\" + Seasonfolders.SelectedItem.Text + "\\" + stylefolders.SelectedItem.Text + "\\Images\\" + FileName;
    FileUpload1.SaveAs(imagepath);
    //objBAL.SaveImage("Image", Session["brandname"].ToString(), Seasonfolders.SelectedItem.Text, stylefolders.SelectedItem.Text, FileName, imagepath, Convert.ToInt32(Session["Empcode"]));
    uploadedimage.ImageUrl = Server.MapPath(@"~/"+imagepath);
    uploadedimage.DataBind();

}

uploadedimage is ID for Image control. The path of imagepath is E:\Folder1\Folder2\Folder3\Images\1.png

The image is getting saved but I cannot able to display the uploaded image. Do I need to add anything in this line which is to display an image ..

C#

uploadedimage.ImageUrl = Server.MapPath(@"~/"+imagepath);
uploadedimage.DataBind();

try below

C#

if (FileUpload1.HasFile)
 {
   string FileName = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
   FileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/" +Session["brandname"].ToString() +
                        "/" + Seasonfolders.SelectedItem.Text +"/" + stylefolders.SelectedItem.Text
                        "/" + Images +"/") + FileName );

   Image1.ImageUrl = "/" +Session["brandname"].ToString() +
                        "/" + Seasonfolders.SelectedItem.Text +"/" + stylefolders.SelectedItem.Text
                        "/" + Images +"/" + FileName ;
 }

Based on your comments, you are storing images outside the root folder. there are few ways to handle this situation.
check Displaying images that are stored outside the Website Root Folder[^]
Or Make D:\YourUploadFolder\ a virtual directory in the website using IIS management - then you could send URL to set the Image1.ImageUrl

Could not find a part of the path 'E:\Sriram\Project\sgportalapplication\Monoprix\SS_15\STYLE_3\Images\Chrysanthemum.jpg'. ...
'E:\Sriram\Project\sgportalapplication (where application resides)
My folder access requirement is E:\Monoprix(Session) and so on

Actually I need to store the image in E:\Monoprix(session[brandname])\Season(season.sel.item)\style(style.item)\Images\filename..
The image should store in corresponding folders using session["brandname"]... and should also retrieve the image from this location only ....

you are saving to folder not inside your web root, ImageUrl need relative path ( relative to your web site root folder) or full web URL. in your case you can't give both of them

Sriram Ramachandran 16-May-14 3:05am

should access all files using rootfolder(E:\\)

is there any reason you can't make upload folder inside your web site root?

Sriram Ramachandran 16-May-14 3:19am

Actually after completing the coding part, I will move all folders in C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot(IIS)Application and required folders to access... so the root would give me C:\ path where I can find the images in specific ...
Upload folder is in respective folders where I'll move to server(IIS) after completing the code...
