Just cross check where is your original file path and get the file path in Server.Mappath. Both should be same.

Are you checking on the computer where your app is running (server) or in your own? Conversely, if you're doing work on localhost, did you check your own computer or server? Does the application have access rights to the folder?

The code is ok, so check your site is running under the interactive user to ensure it has access to the "users" folder.
