Research direction

Start with the reproduced createUploadSession call and the ClassCastException at OneDriveStorageService.java:103, using microsoft-graph 1.9.0 and microsoft-graph-core 1.0.9. Verify why the callback receives a BufferedInputStream instead of an UploadSession; done means the same upload flow completes without the cast failure.

Describe the bug

We are trying to upload content to OneDrive root and getting following error consistently.

java.lang.ClassCastException: class java.io.BufferedInputStream cannot be cast to class com.microsoft.graph.models.extensions.UploadSession (java.io.BufferedInputStream is in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap'; com.microsoft.graph.models.extensions.UploadSession is in unnamed module of loader 'app')

Expected behavior

Upload should work as expected.

How to reproduce

try {
IAuthenticationProvider authProvider = new AuthenticationProvider(accessToken);
// Build a Graph client
final IGraphServiceClient graphServiceClient = GraphServiceClient.builder()
.authenticationProvider(authProvider)
.buildClient();
final BlockingQueue queue = new LinkedBlockingQueue<>(1);
DriveItemUploadableProperties itemProperties = new DriveItemUploadableProperties();
graphServiceClient
.me()
.drive()
.root()
.itemWithPath(escapeSpace(filename))
.createUploadSession(itemProperties)
.buildRequest()
.post(new ICallback() {
@Override
public void failure(final ClientException ex) {
logger.error("createUploadSession.failure: Error occured durring post " + ex);
if (logger.isTraceEnabled()) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
try {
queue.put("");
} catch (InterruptedException ie) {
