Problem with FileUpload Control

Question

Adeel Mirza 21

I am using this source code for file upload.

if (ImportFile.HasFile == false)
{
        EmptyFile.Text = "Please select a file";
        EmptyFile.Visible = true;
        return;
}

In the local PC its working fine. But the Server where I am hosting if the file isn't selected, it throws this exception.

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'F:\Maverick\Projects\ProjectName\FilesUpload\'.

What I do not understand is in the server, why it skips the above condition? Does it have anything to do with the version of Visual Studio and .NET?

In Local PC, I developed the project in Visual Studio 2017 but the server I am hosting it has Visual Studio 2013 not 2017

Could you post more of the code? At line of code is the error happening?

How is the path defined e.g.

@"F:\Maverick\Projects\ProjectName\FilesUpload";

or

"F:\Maverick\Projects\ProjectName\FilesUpload";
