Upload json file to php server in android

Question

I am uploading my json file to php server but it gives me file not found. I have created it dynamically and it shows me in device. I have given same path. I am referring this https://coderwall.com/p/zjuwbg.

Code

       final String uploadFilePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath();
        final String uploadFileName = "MyJson.json";
    FileObj = new File(uploadFilePath+"/"+uploadFileName);
                        System.out.println("file object : "+FileObj);
                        System.out.println("My file name: "+uploadFilePath+""+uploadFileName);
                        //uploadFile(uploadFilePath + "" + uploadFileName,userid);
                        StringBuffer responseBody=new StringBuffer();
                        Log.i("", "Ready to upload file...");
                        HttpClient client=new DefaultHttpClient();
                        client.getParams().setParameter(CoreProtocolPNames.PROTOCOL_VERSION, HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1);
                        Log.i("", "Set remote URL...");
                        HttpPost post=new HttpPost("http://sripadamarketing.com/awarenessu/Data/");
                        File file = new File(uploadFilePath+"/"+uploadFileName);
                        MultipartEntity entity=new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
                        ContentBody cbFile = new FileBody(file, "application/json");         
                        Log.i("emotinal awareness", "Adding file(s)...");

                        try {
                            entity.addPart("param", new StringBody("sync"));
                            entity.addPart("u", new StringBody(userid));
                            entity.addPart("jsonf", cbFile);
                            //entity.addPart("jsonf", new FileBody((FileObj), "application/json"));
                        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
                            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                            e.printStackTrace();
                        }

                        //entity.addPart("uploadedfile2", new FileBody((FileObj), "application/zip"));
                        Log.i("emotinal awareness", "Set entity...");
                        post.setEntity(entity);
                        BufferedReader bs=null;
                        try
                        {
                         Log.i("emotinal awareness", "Upload...");
                          HttpEntity hEntity=client.execute(post).getEntity();
                          bs=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(hEntity.getContent()));
                          Log.i("emotinal awareness", "Response length - "+hEntity.getContentLength());
                          String s="";
                          while(s!=null)
                          {
                            responseBody.append(s);
                            s=bs.readLine();
                            Log.i("emotinal awareness", "Response body - "+s);
                          }
                          bs.close();
                        }
                        catch(IOException ioe)
                        {
                         Log.i("emotinal awareness", "Error on getting response from Server, "+ioe.toString());
                          ioe.printStackTrace();
                          responseBody.append("...");
                        }

You might want to be a bit careful; if those links ever go down, this answer will end up looking rather silly.

thank you very much for the advise. It will be better if you concentrate on the question he asked instead of posted answers.
