Unable to cast object of type 'System.Web.HttpInputStream' to type 'System.IO.FileStream' MVC 3

Question

I have met an issue regarding the casting type from HttpInputStream to FileStream.

How I did ?

I have a HttpPostedFileBase object and I want to have

Answer 1

I used the following and it worked just fine for the same situation

MemoryStream streamIWant = new MemoryStream();
using (Stream mystream = (Stream)AmazonS3Service.GetObjectStream(AWSAlbumBucketName, ObjectId))                                                            
{
    mystream.CopyTo(streamIWant);
}
return streamIWant;

The GetObjectStream returns the same type of string mentioned in the question.
