c# - Cannot find file path - image -

i trying send image on ftp on android. tried lot of possible ways accomplish that, , same problem persists: error telling path/directory/file doesn't exist.

my code right using camerasample xamarin , getting picture taken camera , trying send on ftp. when try that, receive error:

enoent (no such file or directory)

here code:

protected override void onactivityresult(int requestcode, result resultcode, intent data)         {         base.onactivityresult(requestcode, resultcode, data);          // make available in gallery         intent mediascanintent = new intent(intent.actionmediascannerscanfile);         uri contenturi = uri.fromfile(_file);         system.console.writeline (contenturi.tostring ());         mediascanintent.setdata(contenturi);         sendbroadcast(mediascanintent);          // display in imageview. resize bitmap fit display         // loading full sized image consume memory          // , cause application crash.         int height = _imageview.height;         int width = resources.displaymetrics.widthpixels;         using (bitmap bitmap = _file.path.loadandresizebitmap(width, height))         {             _imageview.recyclebitmap ();             _imageview.setimagebitmap(bitmap);         }          thread t = new thread ( () => uploadtoftp(contenturi.tostring()));         t.start ();     }      private void uploadtoftp(string uri){         simpleftp ftp = new simpleftp ();         ftp.connect("xxx.xxxxx.xxx", 21, "xxxxxxx", "xxxxxxxx");         ftp.stor (new file(uri));         ftp.disconnect();     } 

does have ideia happening? i've tried assets/drawable/files etc. , nothing works. the image can seen on imageview.

the path printed on console one:

file:///storage/sdcard0/pictures/cameraappdemo/myphoto_64ee3fec-08af-4bde-9214-62892b6d9f72.jpg

thanks

edit: figured out... problem use of contenturi.tostring() instead of contenturi.path, latter result correct , without "file://" part, should that:

/storage/sdcard0/pictures/cameraappdemo/myphoto_64ee3fec-08af-4bde-9214-62892b6d9f72.jpg
