Kestrelhttpserver: InvalidOperationException: Response Content-Length mismatch when streaming a bitmap

[pathcore-tasos]

Hi there,

If one tries to return an image in a FileStreamResult, the application will throw an exception along the lines of:
InvalidOperationException: Response Content-Length mismatch: too few bytes written (0 of 1234567)

My code was as follows:
```c#
private static IActionResult ImageResult(Bitmap image, ImageFormat format, string mimeType)
{
var stream = new MemoryStream();
image.Save(stream, format);
return new FileStreamResult(stream, mimeType);
}

However, if I changed it to the following,  the image is returned without complaint:
```c#
private static IActionResult ImageResult(Bitmap image, ImageFormat format, string mimeType)
{
    var stream = new MemoryStream();
    image.Save(stream, format);
    return new FileContentResult(stream.ToArray(), mimeType);
}

It appears that doing the reading manually fixes the issue.

Thanks!

Did you forget to Seek the stream back to the beginning?

Yep that would do it!

Sorry to take up your time!

I get the same exception one out of two requests. It only happens when I deploy my application to Azure app service. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it locally.

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    public IActionResult Spa()
    {
        return File("~/index.html", "text/html");
    }
}

@HWouters that looks like a different issue. See https://github.com/aspnet/Mvc/issues/6875

@Tratcher thank you for pointing me to the right issue. The workaround solves my problem until the patch is released.
