Problem embedding resource about mvcmailer

[smsohan]

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

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?

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?

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
