Hello i have this problem saving the image to the folder first i resize the image before saving to folder using ASP.NET Core then image successfully saved , but the problem is the image is 0kb ?

This is my code:

ASP.NET

[HttpPost]
  public IActionResult OnPostMyUploader(IFormFile MyUploader)
  {
      var image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(MyUploader.OpenReadStream());
      var resized = new Bitmap(image, new System.Drawing.Size(150, 150));
      using var imageStream = new MemoryStream();
      resized.Save(imageStream, ImageFormat.Jpeg);
      var imageBytes = imageStream;

      if (MyUploader != null)
      {
          string uploadsFolder = @"\\10.10.10.67\AQSImages\IdPictures\";
          string filePath = Path.Combine(uploadsFolder, MyUploader.FileName);
          using (var fileStream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Create))
          {
             imageBytes.CopyTo(fileStream);
          }
          return new ObjectResult(new { status = "success" });
      }
      return new ObjectResult(new { status = "fail" });

      ////Better use extension method
      //string customRoot = @"\\10.10.10.67\AQSImages\IdPictures\";
      //if (!Directory.Exists(customRoot))
      //{
      //    Directory.CreateDirectory(customRoot);
      //}

  }

The resized.Save method advances the current position of the imageStream by the number of bytes written.

The imageBytes.CopyTo method copies the bytes from the current position to the end of the stream.

Since the current position is already at the end of the stream, there is nothing to copy. You need to reset the current position before copying:

C#

// No point loading and resizing the image if we're not going to use it:
if (MyUploader is null) return new ObjectResult(new { status = "fail" });

using var image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(MyUploader.OpenReadStream());
using var resized = new Bitmap(image, new System.Drawing.Size(150, 150));
using var imageStream = new MemoryStream();
resized.Save(imageStream, ImageFormat.Jpeg);

string uploadsFolder = @"\\10.10.10.67\AQSImages\IdPictures\";
string filePath = Path.Combine(uploadsFolder, MyUploader.FileName);
using var fileStream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Create);

// Reset the current position of the stream:
imageStream.Seek(0L, SeekOrigin.Begin);
imageStream.CopyTo(fileStream);

return new ObjectResult(new { status = "success" });
