How to convert FileInputStream into string in java?

You can’t directly convert it to string. You should implement something like this
Add this code to your method

    //Commented this out because this is not the efficient way to achieve that
    //StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
    //int ch;
    //while((ch = fis.read()) != -1){
    //  builder.append((char)ch);
    //}
    //          
    //System.out.println(builder.toString());

Use Aubin’s solution:

public static String getFileContent(
   FileInputStream fis,
   String          encoding ) throws IOException
 {
   try( BufferedReader br =
           new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(fis, encoding )))
   {
      StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
      String line;
      while(( line = br.readLine()) != null ) {
         sb.append( line );
         sb.append( '\n' );
      }
      return sb.toString();
   }
}
