A generic error occurred in GDI+ while assing tiff image file to Bitmap and Image

Hi,
I am getting "A generic error occurred in GDI+" error while reading the tiff image file to Bitmap or Image.
Below is my sample code.
string filePath=@"c:\Images\sample.tif";
Bitmap bmp=new Bitmap(filePath);   // here getting exception
int totalpages=bmp.GetFrameCount(.....);
etc......
I tried using Bitmap.FromFile() and also from FromStream() even for Image also but there is no use.
Moreover i m having full permissions for the file path and the tiff file is having multiple pages.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue please.
Thanks & Regards,
Kishore

Make sure that the Tif file is valid (can other software open it)?  If you are able to save a Tif using GDI+, try saving that Tif, then opening it.  Part of me wonders if there is something about that specific Tif that GDI+ doesn't like.
You could also try using WIC to open the TIF, perhaps you would have better luck there.

    I am try to save this bitmap as jpg file for every 5 sec. It works fine at another application, before I move this method to another app. The error message shows ExternalException was unhandled : A generic error occurred in GDI+. I do not know if
    it is write permission issure or anything else. Since I use same computer and try to save at same file path, the error message keep going. I think I need help.
    The error code:

    And Only alow me save one jpg, then pop up error

    Hi
    Since I can't reproduce your issue with some
    undefined code.
    Just take a look at from
    Graphics.FromImage Method
      in MSDN  document.
    You should always call the Dispose method to release the
    Graphics and related resources created by the
    FromImage method.  Please try and test it again.
    If still can't resolve, please post the complete code.  Thanks.
    Have a nice day！

    Hi Vel,
    According to the error message, the issue is related to GDI+. Based on my research, it is a known issue that the GDI+ need to be updated on Windows Server 2008 R2. If we want to know what version of GDI+, we can do a file search for Gdiplus.dll.
    To fix this issue, please install the hotfix for your Windows Server 2008 R2 from the following kb:

  • Bitmap.Save 'A generic error occurred in GDI+'

    Hello All,
    I was just going to play around by generating some bitmaps programatically.
    I started off with this simple example, expecting everything to go smoothly, but have run into a strange error.
    The following code is by no means good, just something simple and complete I would expect to work:
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.ComponentModel;
    using System.Data;
    using System.Drawing;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Windows.Forms;
    namespace BitmapOutput
        public partial class Form1 : Form
            /// <summary>
            /// The picture i am drawing
            /// </summary>
            System.Drawing.Bitmap myBitmap;
            /// <summary>
            /// Graphics object for drawing
            /// </summary>
            System.Drawing.Graphics myGrafx;
            public Form1()
                InitializeComponent();
                this.myBitmap = new Bitmap(800, 600);
                this.myGrafx =                 System.Drawing.Graphics.FromImage(this.myBitmap);
                this.DrawPicture();
                this.ShowPicture();
                this.SavePicture();
            public void DrawPicture()
                this.myGrafx.DrawEllipse(
                    new Pen(System.Drawing.Color.AliceBlue),                 new Rectangle(0, 0, 100, 100));
            public void ShowPicture()
                this.pictureBox1.Image = this.myBitmap;
            public void SavePicture()
                this.myBitmap.Save("Output\\out.bmp" ,                    System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp );
    This runs fine until the SavePicture(...) function is called.
    I get the exception:
    "A generic error occurred in GDI+."
    at the this.myBitmap.Save(...); line.
    Most likely there is some detail that I have overlooked, and I appreciate it if anyone could point out to me what I could do to fix it.
    But, I'd like to think that this code would work, it makes sense, and requires little effort, that should be one of the goals of .net
    Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated!
    P.S. how do I use 'code' tags?

    Actually, the fix is to properly dispose of your objects in order.  This is one advantage of C#, with the using() syntax:
    // new image with transparent Alpha layer
    using (var bitmap = new Bitmap(330, 18, PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb))
    using (var graphics = Graphics.FromImage(bitmap))
    // add some anti-aliasing
    graphics.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias;
    using (var font = new Font("Arial", 14.0f, GraphicsUnit.Pixel))
    using (var brush = new SolidBrush(Color.White))
    // draw it
    graphics.DrawString(user.Email, font, brush, 0, 0);
    // setup the response
    Response.Clear();
    Response.ContentType = "image/png";
    Response.BufferOutput = true;
    // write it to the output stream
    bitmap.Save(Response.OutputStream, ImageFormat.Png);
    Response.Flush();
    Notice how I dispose (end the using) of the graphics parameter, before I save it?  You don't have to use the using() statements, just call Dispose() at the end of the scope I show above.
    I ran into this problem today on Azure (works locally in the cloud, just an Azure 1.3 thing!), and I saw the link to the blog post above.  That was a good link, as it pointed me in the direction of disposing the graphics earlier.
    But, there is no point of increasing hte memory usage of two bitmaps if you dispose of your graphics properly before saving.

  • "An error occurred accessing your Microsoft SharePoint Foundation site files" connecting site with SharePoint Designer

    I have a SharePoint 2013 environment with 1 AD Server, 1 DB Server and 1 APP Server, with 13 Web Applications running under the SharePoint.
    Recently I rebuilted the application because of some infrasctrucutre problems, and I was able to solve all of them, except one. I can't connect to any of those 13 Web Apps with SharePoint Designer. When I try to connect, it always ask credentials, then it
    seems like loading the site, then the error appears:
    "An error occurred accessing your Microsoft SharePoint Foundation site files. Authors - if you are authoring against
    a Web server, please contact the Webmaster for this server's Web site. WebMasters - please see the server's application event log for more details."
    I've spent hours troubleshooting it, but none of the information I found was valid. I've already tried to clean the cache, but didn't work. I found plenty of related data of this
    error with FrontPage and old versions of SharePoint, but nothing helped. All the Web Apps are SPD-Enabled at Site Collection Administration. I've tried connecting from many different PC's. The 15/LOGS folder doesn't get any data from this error, neither the
    Event Viewer.
    I really don't know what else to do. Please Help!

    I found the answer of my issue was in a .NET Agent installed by NewRelic on the server. I found a connection trouble with Fiddler, then I end up figuring this out:
    This can be the result of Real User Monitoring so the first step in troubleshooting would be to disable it and see how it affects the application. The .Net Agent injects snippets of javascript into the header of pages sent to the users browser to measure the
    page load time on the user's end.
    You can disable RUM by editing newrelic.config and changing this line:
    <browserMonitoring autoInstrument="true"/>
    to this:
    <browserMonitoring autoInstrument="false"/>

  • An unexpected error occurred processing your request. Check the logs for details and correct the problem.

    Hi All,
    I am configuring RSS Viewer webpart to SP 2013. 
    But i am getting an error "An unexpected error occurred processing your request. Check the logs for details and correct the problem."
    I looked for solution of this error. i got to know, we need to set proxy server in web.config file.
    So, in order to resolve this i put the following set of code in web.config and save the file
    <system.net>
        <defaultProxy>
          <proxy usesystemdefault="True" proxyaddress="http://myproxyserver" bypassonlocal="True" />      
        </defaultProxy>
      </system.net>
    But, still i am getting the error. 
    What could be the problem now. 
    Any help is much appreciated. 
    Thanks,
    Rakesh

    Hi Rakesh,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you used RSS viewer web part in SharePoint 2013.
    The RSS viewer web part uses authentication delegation and is using the current user's credentials to access the proxy. However, the RSS viewer only supports anonymous and Kerberos authentication. So if you are using NTLM authentication, the RSS viewer will
    not be able to authenticate the user through the proxy. More information, please refer to the link:
    http://kalsing.blogspot.com/2007/11/troubleshooting-rss-viewer-web-part.html
    Also see:
