I have one form in which the user can upload an image file. The Upload Path is blank so the file is uploaded to the default .../components/com_chronoforms/chronoforms/uploads/form1 folder.
I have a second form in which the user may delete or replace the image with another. If I leave the Upload Path blank, it uploads the image to the .../components/com_chronoforms/chronoforms/uploads/form2 folder.
The image has to go into form1's folder. In order to do that, I have to specify an "Absolute server path" to the folder. I can't figure what that path should be. I tried using my site as a prefix: http://gwillis.net/components/com_chronoforms/chronoforms/uploads/form1
but that didn't work.
How do I determine what the "Absolute server path" to the folder is?

Hi jmahun,
It's the folder path you need not the URL, If you go to Site Admin > System Information > Configuration file and look for the log_path setting that should tell you - in my case it is /home/user_name/domain_name/logs
Replace the logs with your path and you should be good to go with something a bit like

PS You can also probably see the path if you add a Debugger to a form with a working Files Upload action.
