Invalid Image data - object is in use elsewhere

[Anula]

Hello I have a following problem - in my web app I am using an html 5 report viewer with telerik reporting and from time to time I am encountering a following problem - picturebox control is not being loaded with image data. Attached is a screenshot with a problem.

I am loading image data as base:

     [code]var bytes = Convert.FromBase64String(base64String);
            using (var ms = new MemoryStream(bytes))
            {
                pbLogo.Value = Image.FromStream(ms);
            }[/code]

 

I tried to search for similara problems, but none of the resolutions worked out.

The error from this thread looks similar - https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/2ee73705-d2a1-4f92-bda5-523fe1e4cd77/the-object-is-currently-in-use-elsewhere?forum=winforms

Is this the same issue?

Anula, did you ever find a solution for this problem?  I'm having the same issue.

Thanks

Hi Andrew,

There's a lock inside GDI+ that prevents two threads from accessing a bitmap at the same time. Please check the following articles on the same topic:
