Client_to_db_with_progress

Question

I've been using webutil functions for a while now with no errors. Recently I tried using client_to_db_with_progress and nothing happens, I don't get error messages, no files get uploaded, the application just hangs until I stop it. I'm using the sample form wu_test_106.fmb.
What follows is what I have done for the test.
Created table wu_test_table
Name Null? Type
ID NUMBER
DOC_NAME VARCHAR2(300)
DOC_BLOB BLOB
made sure webutil_db package is installed and all grants and synonyms were completed.
Made sure that parameter transfer.database.enabled=TRUE in webutil.cfg
this is the code behind the button that users push for upload:
BEGIN
message('will go to upload in a second');
upload_db;
     exception
     when others
     then
     message('File upload failed: '||sqlerrm);
end; }
and this is the code used to do the upload
PROCEDURE UPLOAD_DB IS
l_success boolean default FALSE;
BEGIN
message('about to upload');
l_success := webutil_file_transfer.Client_To_DB_with_progress
(:upload.file_name
,'WU_TEST_TABLE'
,'DOC_BLOB'
,'ID = 1'
,'Upload to Database in progress'
,'Please wait'
,false
,null
/* (clientFile => :upload.file_name
,tableName => 'WU_TEST_TABLE'
,columnName => 'DOC_BLOB'
,whereClause => 'ID = 1'
,progressTitle => 'Upload to Database in progress'
,progressSubTitle=> 'Please wait'
,asynchronous => false
,callbackTrigger => null
if l_success
then
message('File uploaded successfully into the Database');
else
message('File upload to Database failed');
end if;
exception
     when others
     then
     message('File upload failed: '||sqlerrm);
END;
I am able to use the client_to_as_with_progress and as_to_client_with_progress procedures and both work fine.
the way it is setup, the code behind the button to complete the upload calls a procedure in program units "UPLOAD_DB". It seems that the code is not even making it to the procedure because the message I have the upload procedure does not even display.
Thanks

Answer 1

Thank you for your help ...but how did you change the call from webutil_db_local to webutil_db ?
can anyone please help for i have the same problem ...
but the strange thing is that files sometimes get uploaded and sometimes they don't ..and as long as the form that i call the upload from is open it causes a block to the table that it used !
Thanks
