I want to save image path in the database. I am using string type image not save in folder but image name also saved in the database. I am using a string so SaveAs() doesn't compile.

Why I am using string? Because when I am using public HttpPostedFileBase imagefile {get;set;} it shows a null value in the controller.

Model

   public string imagePath { get;set; } // contains the name of the image
   public string imageFile { get;set; } // contains string bytes

C#

byte[] data = Convert.FromBase64String(Quot[i].imageFile.Replace("data:image/jpeg;base64,", ""));

Image img;
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(data, 0, data.Length);
ms.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
img = Image.FromStream(ms, true);


string fileName = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(Quot[i].imagePath);
string extension = Path.GetExtension(Quot[i].imagePath);
fileName = fileName + DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") + extension;
Quot[i].imagePath = "~/AppFiles/Images/" + fileName;
fileName = Path.Combine(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/AppFiles/Images/"), fileName);
Quot[i].imageFile.SaveAs(fileName);

  • Is there a specific reason on why you load the file contents to an `Image`? If you don't wish to process the image, you could handle it as any other file. – Tasos K. Oct 15 '18 at 23:10

  • See the answer from @CodeCaster below. Fix the actual problem, not the new one you've found when trying to ignore the real issue. – Reinstate Monica Cellio Oct 16 '18 at 09:43

Then rather fix that problem, instead of converting your code to work with a base64 string.

See for example HTTPPostedFileBase always return null in controller.

Anyhow, if you want to save an image, of which byte[] data holds the bytes, then simply write those bytes to a file:

File.WriteAllBytes(fileName, data);
