Fetching full folder URL in Powershell

Question

Hi,
I am trying to upload some images to a sub-folder in a library.
However, the folder path does not seem to be correct, and the image is not getting added.
The actual url will be : http://server/Lists/LibraryName/subfolder
But when using the powershell, the path is coming as :
http://Server/LibraryName/subfolder/
Below is the powershell code used:
function UploadImages($weburl)
$docLibraryName = "TestLibrary"
$localFolderPath = "C:\Users\Test\test_image"
Add-PsSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -erroraction silentlycontinue
$web = Get-SPWeb -Identity $webUrl
$docLibrary = $web.Lists[$docLibraryName]
$subFolderName="test_image"
#Attach to local folder and enumerate through all files
$files = ([System.IO.DirectoryInfo] (Get-Item $localFolderPath)).GetFiles() | ForEach-Object {
#Create file stream object from file
$fileStream = ([System.IO.FileInfo] (Get-Item $_.FullName)).OpenRead()
$contents = new-object byte[] $fileStream.Length
$fileStream.Read($contents, 0, [int]$fileStream.Length);
$fileStream.Close();
write-host "Copying" $_.Name "to" $docLibrary.Title "in" $web.Title "..."
#Add file
$folder = $web.getfolder($docLibrary.Title + "/" + $subFolderName)
write-host "folder is " $folder
write-host "whole url is " $folder.Url + "/" + $_.Name
[Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFile]$spFile = $folder.Files.Add($folder.Url + "/" + $_.Name, $contents, $true)
$spItem = $spFile.Item
Write-Host -f Green "Added Images to Library !!!"
$web.Dispose()
The below line is throwing error:
[Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFile]$spFile = $folder.Files.Add($folder.Url + "/" + $_.Name, $contents, $true)
The write host output is showing the below:
Copying ab_small_gif.gif to testLibrary in testLab ...
folder is testLibrary/test_image
whole url is testLibrary/test_image + / + ab_small_gif.gif
864
ForEach-Object : Exception calling "Add" with "3" argument(s):
"<nativehr>0x80070003</nativehr><nativestack></nativestack>There is no file
with URL 'http://server/testLibrary/test_image/ab_small_gif.gif' in this Web."
How to fix this?
Thanks

Hi  ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you encountered the error “There is no file with URL 'http://server/testLibrary/test_image/ab_small_gif.gif' in this Web” when you try to upload some
images to a sub-folder in a library using PowerShell script.
Per my knowledge, the URL of a SharePoint library should be as this : 
http://servername/LibraryName
Such as :
http://sp2013/Shared%20Documents
The URL of a SharePoint list should be as this:
http://servername/Lists/ListName
Such as :
http://sp2013/Calendar
So please make sure the location you want to upload the images to is  a library.
Also you can try to  create a new Document Library and upload your images.
Thanks,
Eric
