Without your code? We are guessing... But teh error is pretty explicit: you are trying to refer to a file directly using a relative path:
..\folder\file.jpg
But the current folder is already at the root of the drive (or root of the website for a web app) Try using an absolute path, or check your current folder is where you think it is!
