Error in reading a file:

Question

Hello all,
I got the error below:
Exception java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Home$\BLOB.txt (No such file or directory)
the code is:
PreparedStatement  pSt = con.prepareStatement("insert into CLOB_COL Values(?,?)") ;
pSt.setString(1,"U");
<b>FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream(element.getFileName()); //getting error here</b>
byte[] b= new byte[fis.available()+1];
fis.read(b);
pSt.setBytes(3,b);
pSt.execute();
pSt.close();     
Please suggest:

Pradeep,
You are getting that exception, bcz it cant find the file path.
Generally it looks for tht file in the current working directory.
You can specify the file exact location (path) like this.
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream("C:
Documents and Settings
user
testfile.txt");
use '
' where ever you have to use '\'.
Check this API for FileInputStream.
