Problem embedding resource #30

Closed jonchai closed 12 years ago

jonchai commented 12 years ago

Without embedding resource, it I can send out emails just fine. However, if I were to try the following:

PopulateBody(mailMessage, viewName: "ResetPassword", linkedResources: resources);

I get error Could not find a part of the path. I have set "/Content/images/logo.png" as my path but it points to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DevServer\10.0\Content\images\logo.png' instead. Any idea how I could get this going?

Use server.MapPath or something similar to map the path relative to your bin.

I understand that Server.MapPath is the way to go. However, Server.MapPath is not directly accessible from the Mailer class. The only way I could think of doing is to pass the path from controller to the Mailer class' constructor, but this would definitely cause some mess.

Any other workaround?

smsohan commented 12 years ago

Mailer base is a controller base and has access to http context. You can use that.

:) Cheers.

For others who have trouble, just do base.CurrentHttpContext.Server.MapPath
