Cannot use Server.MapPath

What I must do to make Server.MapPath work?
I have using System.Web;

what else? When I type Server there is no quick result option (intelli-sense) for Server.

Any help?

you can try using this

    System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(path);

or use HostingEnvironment.MapPath

    System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment.MapPath(path);

Your project needs to reference assembly System.Web.dll. Server is an object of type HttpServerUtility. Example:

HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(path);

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/") gives null if we call it from a thread.

So, Try to use

System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment.MapPath("~/")

Firt add a reference to System.web, if you don't have. Do that in the References folder.

You can then use Hosting.HostingEnvironment.MapPath(path);

bool IsExist = System.IO.Directory.Exists(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("/UploadedFiles/"));
if (!IsExist)
    System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("/UploadedFiles/"));
            
StreamWriter textWriter = File.CreateText(Path.Combine(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("/UploadedFiles/") + "FileName.csv"));
var csvWriter = new CsvWriter(textWriter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);
csvWriter.WriteRecords(classVM);

Try adding System.Web as a reference to your project.

You need to add reference (System.Web) Reference to System.Web

I know this post is a few years old, but what I do is add this line to the top of your class and you will still be able to user Server.MapPath

Dim Server = HttpContext.Current.Server

or u can make a function

Public Function MapPath(sPath as String)
    return HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(sPath)
End Function

I am all about making things easier. I have also added it to my Utilities class just in case i run into this again.

I faced the same problem and I guess this might help someone. As the Original Poster of this question asked

The class which we had written should implement System.Web.UI.Page

Say for example, our classname is MyClass

public class MyClass: System.Web.UI.Page
{
// Code runs here 
}
