How to save file based on relative or virtual path when using plesk?

Question

I have a program in asp.Net MVC. My server is plesk.

I save my files using this method:

public string SaveFile(HttpPostedFileBase file, string path)
{
    string fileName = Guid.NewGuid() + file.FileName;
    var filePath = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/Images/"), fileName);
    file.SaveAs(filePath);
    return fileName;
}

and file saving is OK in test computer. But after uploading on server I get this error:

Could not find a part of the path 'C:\\Inetpub\\vhosts\\hostname.com\\mysitename.com\\Images\\myFile.jpg'

What is wrong with my code? Should I use something different when using plesk?

Answer 1

OK then, most likely it is because your IIS user does not have write permission to write on that folder. Add full permission on the folder. The user must be something like: Plesk IIS WP User .

You can simply allow write/modify permission for subscription in Hosting Settings:
