I have a question about 2 C# 2010 windows applications that I am running:
In one program I am <appSettings>
<add key="FileLocation" value="D:App\Staging" />
</appSettings>
String filesaveLocation = null;
filesaveLocation = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["FileLocation"] + "\\" + Format_Date + "\\";
if (Directory.Exists(filesaveLocation))
The above works.
In the other program I am using
<appSettings>
< add key="FileLocation" value="D:App\\Staging" />
< /appSettings>
String filesaveLocation = null;
filesaveLocation = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["FileLocation"] + "\\" + Format_Date + "\\";
if (Directory.Exists(filesaveLocation))
this works fine on my windows 7 workstattion.
However when I move the code to a production server, the code does not work.
Do I need to have the '\\" in the directory path set to a different value?
Thus can you tell me what you think could be going wrong and show me code on how to solve the problem?
