inputparameter uploadlocation is invalid in windows phone while calling backgrounduploadasync method with liveconnectclient in windows phone?

Question

I always get the below error while trying to upload the photo chosen from pictures.

System.ArgumentException: Input parameter 'uploadLocation' is invalid. 'uploadLocation' must be rooted in \shared\transfers. Parameter name: uploadLocation

The path of the image files chosen was:

C:\Data\Users\Public\Pictures\Camera Roll\WP_20130228_001.jpg.

Any idea how I can supply the image file in the expected format?

MainPage.client.BackgroundUploadAsync("ToFolder", new System.Uri("C:\Data\Users\Public\Pictures\Camera Roll\WP_20130228_001.jpg"), OverwriteOption.Overwrite);

You're trying to access an image on your PC, from your phone? I don't think it can work like that. Check out the answer on this question, it explains `BackgroundUploadAsync()` a little better, and links to some documentation. — lhan, Feb 27 '13 at 19:17

The c drive always come in windows phone also.just by removing the entire path and only giving the file name as parameter has fixed the issue.
