As error says, file cannot be found as you are providing relative path. You should have provided absolute path

can you give me an example?
in the documentation it says that a absolute path is one with / at the front
and i tried that too and got the same error.
i am working on Windows operating system but the server is apache tomcat
if it makes any difference
thank you for your time

If you working on Windows then absolute path would be drive letter with directions to file, example C:\Images\img01.jpeg
