c# - PartialInputStream during Bouncycastle PGP decryption

Question

I am tryng to decrypt a file I just encrypted using bouncycastle, but im getting this exception:

Premature end of stream in PartialInputStream

I am using the example code from bouncycastle and haven't changed anything.

I'm getting this when I use this code for encryption:

private static byte[] EncryptFile(byte[] clearData, string fileName, PgpPublicKey encKey, bool withIntegrityCheck)
{
    MemoryStream encOut = new MemoryStream();
    try
    {
        MemoryStream bOut = new MemoryStream();

        PgpCompressedDataGenerator comData = new PgpCompressedDataGenerator( CompressionAlgorithmTag.Zip );

        //PgpUtilities.WriteFileToLiteralData(
        //    comData.Open(bOut),
        //    PgpLiteralData.Binary,
        //    new FileInfo(fileName));
        Stream cos = comData.Open(bOut);
        PgpLiteralDataGenerator lData = new PgpLiteralDataGenerator();

        Stream pOut = lData.Open(
            cos,
            PgpLiteralData.Binary,
            fileName,
            clearData.Length,
            DateTime.UtcNow
            );

        lData.Close();
        comData.Close();

        PgpEncryptedDataGenerator cPk = new PgpEncryptedDataGenerator( SymmetricKeyAlgorithmTag.Cast5, withIntegrityCheck, new SecureRandom() );

        cPk.AddMethod(encKey);

        byte[] bytes = bOut.ToArray();

        Stream os = encOut;

        Stream cOut = cPk.Open(os, bytes.Length);
        cOut.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
        cOut.Close();

        encOut.Close();
    }
    catch (PgpException e)
    {
        Console.Error.WriteLine(e);

        Exception underlyingException = e.InnerException;
        if (underlyingException != null)
        {
            Console.Error.WriteLine(underlyingException.Message);
            Console.Error.WriteLine(underlyingException.StackTrace);
        }
    }
    return encOut.ToArray();
}

I think it has something to do with the PgpLiteralDataGenerator. But I need to use it because I want to encrypt data from a byte array, not from a file. Is there some other way to do this?

Anybody who is struggeling heres a working code:

using System;
using System.Xml;
using System.IO;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
using System.Security.Cryptography.Xml;
using System.Text;

using Org.BouncyCastle.Bcpg.OpenPgp;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Security;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Utilities.IO;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Utilities.Encoders;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Bcpg;

class Program
{
    private static PgpPublicKey ReadPublicKey(Stream inputStream)
    {

        inputStream = PgpUtilities.GetDecoderStream(inputStream);

        PgpPublicKeyRingBundle pgpPub = new PgpPublicKeyRingBundle(inputStream);

        //
        // we just loop through the collection till we find a key suitable for encryption, in the real
        // world you would probably want to be a bit smarter about this.
        //

        //
        // iterate through the key rings.
        //

        foreach (PgpPublicKeyRing kRing in pgpPub.GetKeyRings())
        {
            foreach (PgpPublicKey k in kRing.GetPublicKeys())
            {

                }

        Stream cos = comData.Open(bOut); // open it with the final destination
        PgpLiteralDataGenerator lData = new PgpLiteralDataGenerator();

        // we want to Generate compressed data. This might be a user option later,
        // in which case we would pass in bOut.

            DateTime.UtcNow         // current time
        );

        pOut.Write(clearData, 0, clearData.Length);

        lData.Close();
        comData.Close();

        PgpEncryptedDataGenerator cPk = new PgpEncryptedDataGenerator(SymmetricKeyAlgorithmTag.Cast5, new SecureRandom());

        cPk.AddMethod(encKey);

        byte[] bytes = bOut.ToArray();

        MemoryStream encOut = new MemoryStream();
        Stream os = encOut;

        Stream cOut = cPk.Open(os, bytes.Length);
        cOut.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);  // obtain the actual bytes from the compressed stream
        cOut.Close();

        encOut.Close();

        return encOut.ToArray();
    }

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
