“Could not find a part of the path” asmx web service

Question

I have a web service web method that accepts an image (as a byte[] array).

[WebMethod]
        public string SaveImage(byte[] fs, string fileName)
        {
            string path = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~") + "/Images/" + fileName;

            try
            {
                MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(fs);
                //Server.MapPath("~/Images/")
                FileStream stream = new FileStream(path, FileMode.CreateNew);

                ms.WriteTo(stream); 
                ms.Close();
                stream.Close();
                stream.Dispose(); 

                return "OK";
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                string msg = ex.Message.ToString() +
                        "\n" +
                        DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString() +
                        "---" +
                        DateTime.Now.ToShortTimeString() +
                        "\n" +
                        "-----------------------------";
                Logger.WriteLog(msg);

                return ex.Message;
            }
        }

I have added correct permissions to the folder, but whatever I try i get the same error,

“Could not find a part of the path c:\inetpub\wwwroot\app\Images”

thanks for the help in advance.

Well after testing a bit there was an issue saving data that came from another platform(android) so i converted the image to a base64 string. And that i converted to an image and successfully saved to the folder.
