Using memorystream and DotNetZip in MVC gives "Cannot access a closed Stream"
- by Frode Lillerud
I'm trying to create a zipfile in a MVC method using the DotNetZip components.
Here is my code:
public FileResult DownloadImagefilesAsZip()
{
using (var memoryStream = new MemoryStream())
{
using (var zip = new ZipFile())
{
zip.AddDirectory(Server.MapPath("/Images/"));
zip.Save(memoryStream);
return File(memoryStream, "gzip", "images.zip");
}
}
}
When I run it I get a "Cannot access a closed Stream" error, and I'm not sure why.
