How to insert a image file into oracle database

hi all
can anyone guide me how to insert a image file into oracle database now
i have created table using
create table imagestore(image blob);
but when inserting i totally lost don't know what to do how to write query to insert image file

Hi I don't have time to explain really, I did have to do this a while ago though so I will post a code snippet. This is using the commons file upload framework.
Firstly you need a multi part form data (if you are using a web page). If you are not using a web page ignore this bit.
out.println("<form name=\"imgFrm\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\" action=\"FileUploadServlet?thisPageAction=reloaded\" onSubmit=\"return submitForm();\"><input type=\"FILE\" name=\"imgSource\" size='60' class='smalltext' onKeyPress='return stopUserInput();' onKeyUp='stopUserInput();' onKeyDown='stopUserInput();' onMouseDown='noMouseDown(event);'>");
out.println("   <input type='submit' name='submit' value='Submit' class='smalltext'>");
out.println("</form>"); Import this once you have the jar file:
import org.apache.commons.fileupload.*;Now a method I wrote to upload the file. I am not saying that this is correct, or its the best way to do this. I am just saying it works for me.
private boolean uploadFile(HttpServletRequest request, HttpSession session) throws Exception {
        boolean result = true;
        String fileName = null;
        byte fileData[] = null;
        String fileUploadError = null;
        String imageType = "";
        String error = "";
        DiskFileUpload fb = new DiskFileUpload();
        List fileItems = fb.parseRequest(request);
        Iterator it = fileItems.iterator();
        while(it.hasNext()){
            FileItem fileItem = (FileItem)it.next();
            if (!fileItem.isFormField()) {
                fileName = fileItem.getName();
                fileData = fileItem.get();
                // Get the imageType from the filename extension
                if (fileName != null) {
                    int dotPos = fileName.indexOf('.');
                    if (dotPos >= 0 && dotPos != fileName.length()-1) {
                        imageType = fileName.substring(dotPos+1).toLowerCase();
                        if (imageType.equals("jpg")) {
                            imageType = "jpeg";
        String filePath = request.getParameter("FILE_PATH");
        session.setAttribute("filePath", filePath);
        session.setAttribute("fileData", fileData);
        session.setAttribute("fileName", fileName);
        session.setAttribute("imageType", imageType);
        return result;
     } And now finally the method to actually write the file to the database:
private int writeImageFile(byte[] fileData, String fileName, String imageType, String mode, Integer signatureIDIn, HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception {
        //If the previous code found a file that can be uploaded then
        //save it into the database via a pstmt
        String sql = "";
        UtilDBquery udbq = getUser(request).connectToDatabase();
        Connection con = null;
        int signatureID = 0;
        PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
        try {
            udbq.setUsePreparedStatements(true);
            con = udbq.getPooledConnection();
            con.setAutoCommit(false);
            if((!mode.equals("U")) || (mode.equals("U") && signatureIDIn == 0)) {
                sql = "SELECT SEQ_SIGNATURE_ID.nextval FROM DUAL";
                pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                ResultSet rs = pstmt.executeQuery();
                while(rs.next()) {
                   signatureID = rs.getInt(1);
                if (fileName != null && imageType != null) {
                    sql = "INSERT INTO T_SIGNATURE (SIGNATURE_ID, SIGNATURE) values (?,?)";
                    InputStream is2 = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
                    pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                    pstmt.setInt(1, signatureID);
                    pstmt.setBinaryStream(2, is2, (int)(fileData.length));
                    pstmt.executeUpdate();
                    pstmt.close();
                    con.commit();
                    con = null;
            if(mode.equals("U") && signatureIDIn != 0) {

                    InputStream is2 = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
                    pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                    pstmt.setBinaryStream(1, is2, (int)(fileData.length));
                    pstmt.setInt(2, signatureID);
                    pstmt.executeUpdate();

Hello,
The easiest way to load a blob is to use SQL loader.
This example comes from the utilities guide:

INFILE 'sample.dat'

1 ext_fname FILLER CHAR(40),
2 "RESUME" LOBFILE(ext_fname) TERMINATED BY EOF)

Flat file to Oracle Database - Invalid Month

Hi All
I am New to XI and trying to create a simple interface between Legacy system (flat file) and Oracle database.
I have some date fields in the Oracle table.
When i run the interface it says "invalid month" with some SQL exception number.
I am using (mm/dd/yyyy) format for the date.
Is there any conversion i need to do. I am using XML SQL format for Oracle database.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Nagakishore

Hello,
Oracle is very picky with the way date is stored. Assume that you have a field datefield that you need to save. In mapping add an attribute hasqQuote and set it to "NO". When mapping the value to the node use to_date as shown below.
<DateField hasQuot="No">
TO_DATE("2004-07-20", "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss")</DateField>
cheers,

Extract data from XML file to Oracle database

Dear All
Please let me know, how to extract data from XML file to Oracle database which includes texts & images.
Thanking You
Regards Lakmal Marasinghe

I would do it from the database, but then again, I am a database / PL/SQL guy.
IMHO the database will deliver you with more options. I don't know about "speed" between the two.

Migrate sql server dump file to Oracle database on a network

I have a sql server dump file provided to me by DBA's. I have to migrate this dump file to Oracle database on a network. Please suggest me the steps to do this.

regardless of the tool/technique you use, those bits have to get from machine running sqlserver to the machine running Oracle. Either over the network (through the firewall) or via 'sneakernet.' What, exactly, are the firewall constraints?
If the export is a simple text file (character delimited fields? fixed length fields?) and only 100 records ... Migration Workbench may be overkill, perhaps a simple sqlldr job. But you still have to get the bits from 'there' to 'here'.
============================================================================
BTW, it would be really helpful if you would go to your profile and give yourself a recognizable name. It doesn't have to be your real name, just something that looks like a real name. Who says my name is really Ed Stevens? But at least when people see that on a message they have a recognizable identity. Unlike the system generated name of 'ed0f625b-6857-4956-9b66-da280b7cf3a2', which is like going to the pub with a bag over your head.

What file format Oracle Database 11g can spool data w chinese characters?

Hi,
I have a batch job that spools data into a text file for further processing but now I have data that contains chinese characters.
From what I know text file (.txt) cannot support chinese characters.
Anyone has any idea what file format Oracle Database 11g can spool data with chinese characters?
Thank you!

I'm not sure this can work with SQL*Plus in character mode on Windows DOS mode. But this should work with SQL Developer: see Re: How to display Chinese characters in Oracle?

Can one import .odarc extention file into oracle database

Hi All,
When we asked client for their production data dump, we got a file with .odarc extention. I googled to find out about this file extention and found info mostly referring to User Productivity Kit. I assume that this file cannot be imported in to oracle database. Since my knowledge about this is limited, I want to find out if it's possible to import this file to oracle database or not. If it's possible what's the work around.
Environment details
OS : Windows server 2003 sp2
Oracle version : 11.2.0.1
Please ask me if the info is insufficient.
Thanks & Regards

Oracle can only process files created with :
1. Oracle exp (export tool) with imp
2. Oracle expdp (data pump export) with impdp
3. plain ASCII files with a column based format like CSV with SQL*Loader or external table
4. file containing Oracle SQL statements with SQL*Plus or similar tool.
Any other file type cannot be directly processed by Oracle.
