How to use Server.MapPath in ASP.NET MVC 4?

You can use Server.MapPath in ASP.NET MVC 4 like this:

String path = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(“~/myFolder/myFile.txt”);

You can use the way mentioned above but ASP.NET MVC 4 has another way to map files on server  and that is using HostingEnvironment class. Actually Server.MapPath() also internally calls HostingEnvironment.MapPath() to map the file paths on server. It belongs to the  System.Web.Hosting namespace. SO you can use it like this:

using System.Web.Hosting;
String path = HostingEnvironment.MapPath(“~/myFolder/myFile.txt”);

It is more recommended because its static and not dependent on current context unless you want it to use.

Thanks!
