System.UnauthorizedAccessException

  Message=Access to the path "/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/Image20210122123251243.jpg" is denied.

 Please Help.

Hi Arijit Banerjee, 

 

Greeting from Syncfusion. 

 

We have checked your reported query and we suspect that the storage permission is not enabled for your installed application on the device. So, can you please enable the storage permission. Please refer the below screenshot. 

  

   

   

Or  

   

You can enable the storage permission at runtime. Please find the code snippet from below.  

   

Andriod:  

   

MainActivity.cs  

public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsAppCompatActivity  

    {  

        private static int PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE = 200;  

        protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)  

        {  

           …  

   

            ActivityCompat.RequestPermissions(this, new String[] { Manifest.Permission.WriteExternalStorage, Manifest.Permission.ReadExternalStorage }, PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);  

   

        }  

        public override void OnRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, string[] permissions, [GeneratedEnum] Android.Content.PM.Permission[] grantResults)  

        {  

            Xamarin.Essentials.Platform.OnRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);  

   

            base.OnRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);  

        }  

    }  

   

   

We would like to suggest you to set the value of requestLegacyExternalStorage to true in your app's manifest file if the target version is 10 as like below code snippet. 

 

AndroidManifest.xml 

<manifest ...> 

 

  <application android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" ...> 

    ... 

  </application> 

   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" /> 

</manifest>

Enabling "requestLegacyExternalStorage" is a stop-gap solution for SDK 29. If you target SDK 30 (Android 11), that flag doesn't work anymore. Is there going to be an update to the control that allows it to run on SDK 30? If so, when?

Thanks.

Hi GrowthLadder, 

  

Sorry for the inconvenience. 

  

The reported issue has been resolved in higher Android versions. However, in lower Android versions, we are facing some technical issues. As a result, we were unable to include the patch in our weekly NuGet on August 24th as promised. The version compatibility issue will be fixed in our upcoming 2021 Volume 3 release, which is schedule to be rolled out on end of September 2021. We appreciate your patience until then. 

  

Regards, 

Eswaran

Hi GrowthLadder, 

 

We have tested the reported problem by cropping and saving the image. But we are unable to reproduce it from our side. We have prepared a video to show that SfImageEdior control doesn’t throws any exception when saving the edited image. Please find the video from the below link.
