The code that you are using is for Playframework 1.x, and it is not compatible with the 2.x version. These two versions are totally different.

As @rags mentioned, take a look at How to render a binary with play 2.0?

public static Result getImage() throws IOException { File file = new File( "d:\Images\"+name+".jpg" );

    return ok(org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.readFileToByteArray(file)).as("image/jpeg");
}

Here I am using IOException because I am using file operations, this is another way used rather than renderBinary
