Because a URL is not UNC. You need to either create a virtual directory
that points to that location, or us File IO to get the image.

Hi Kevin,

How to go create a virtual directory which points to the location of the
image and how to create a file IO to get that image? It might be a very basic
question, but I would be glad if you could help.

Thanks

Hi pmud,

Well, you want to do one OR the other, NOT both. The first option would be
done through Internet Information Services Admin. It might be best to ask a
network administrator to do that for you. A virtual directory is simply a
web directory that points to a real directory somewhere, not necessarily in
the web server's folders.

The second option is fairly self-explanatory. You use System.IO classes to
open the file, and write it to the Response.Output Stream. Your app will have
to have permission to open the file.

Hi Kevin,

In IIS I browsed to Default Websites , then in my website folder called APP,
I right clicked & created a new Virtual Directory which points to
C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/APP . Inside APP i created an image folder which contains
the image. But when i see it from my local machine, with the URL for the site
as :
http//xxx.xx.x.x/APP/Default.aspx , i still cant see the image, or when I
use the name of the Virual directory in the path, as
http//xxx.xx.x.x/VirtualDir/APP/Default.aspx , i still cant see the image
displayed.

Did I do it the right way? If yes, then why is it not displaying?
