Description:
In

Questions,
jQuery validate file extension in file
upload control
and many articles relating to asp.net, C#, VB.NET code snippets. Now I will explain how
to get full path from fileupload
control in asp.net using C#, VB.NET.
In
many forums I saw the question like How to get full path from fileupload
control from client machine?
For
this question answer is we don’t have chance to get full path of uploaded file
from fileupload control because of some security reasons browsers will return
only file name instead of full file path from client machine.
If
you want to get full path of uploaded file from fileupload control from client
machine we need to save that file in our application folder from that we can
get path of that file like as shown below
string filename = Path.GetFileName(fileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
fileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("Files/"+filename));
string filepath = "Files/"+filename;

you want see it in complete example check below post

how i retrieve video which was uploaded by fileupload control
string path = @"D:\emp.xlsx";
Wrong total wrong, i think you dont know about the security of browsers or iis, you never ever access the full path of the client file in server it will always return (fakepath) because the security policy (ya it is working if client and server exist in same server i.e local server)
