Saving images into database

Hi All,
I have a table with 3 BLOB columns to store images and a NUMBER type column to store the image id_no. I am using database 10g and Forms 6i
My problem is I recently updated the database from 8i to 10g, and since then I am unable to update or insert the new images in these BLOB columns. When I update the existing image or insert new image record through forms, It does save the changes in existing or new record. But It does not show these images while query the record. and also does not give any error while executing the query in forms.
But while trying to retrive the image from updated records or new record in reports, It throughs the error that image is format is unreadable or currupt.
There wasn't any problem in 8i, i could update the record as many times I wanted or create as many records as needed.
Is anybody have any clue about this problem! Any help in this regard will be highly appriciated.
Thanking you and Best Regards.

You should not save an image to database, since it'll make database slow, and difficult to write a web page to load image.
Save an image to specific location, and save image location to database.
Then, use <img> tag to call an image in web page.

  • Saving webcam images into database

    Hi,
    I have managed to acquire the image from my webcam through the vision acquisition software but now i faced a problem because i want the image to be stored in the database so that it could be view from a webpage( like a video stream).
    What i did in my vi was just take the image out and connected it directly to the database and data is going in the database but when i tried to display it on the webpage it does not show.
    Is it possible to do that and if so is there any tutorials i can refer to?
    Solved!

  • Goto saving images into a pdf and a message comes up " cannot start print job"

    I an having a problem with my lightroom 4- I goto save my images into a PDF and it comes up " cannot start print job" and wont even save the images. What can be the problem, ive never had the situation before.

    Hi Sasha,
    Using Acrobat, you can create forms that are called AcroForms. The forms created in LC Designer are called XFA (XML Forms Architecture) and are more data centric. While both will open in Acrobat, they are completely different animals.
    The issue with users not being able to save the data with Reader is that the form is not Reader Enabled. You can Reader Enable a form using one of two methods:
    Reader Enable the form using Acrobat Professional (V8 or below) or Acrobat Standard (V9 or above). Note there are licensing restrictions.
    Reader Enable the form using the full server product Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2.5. This involves additional licensing fees.
    Have a look here: http://assure.ly/etkFNU, at the features that are available depending on whether the user has Acrobat or Reader; if the form is Reader Enabled; and how the form was Reader Enabled.
    The issue of Reader Enabling would also apply to AcroForms.
    I don't think that you need to dive into LC Designer just yet, as forms created in LC Designer face the same issues about Reader Enabling as forms developed in Acrobat.
    If your usage complies with the EULA, then you could Reader Enable your form in Acrobat.
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

  • Urgent : how to put an image into database and how to get it from it?

    hi,
    in the database i made a longblob type for image, and in my java code i have the path of the image (String): "C:\............." and i want to put this image in my data base.
    also i want to know how to get the image after put it in the database.
    please help me, it's so urgent.

    This is a way of getting the image out of the database.

    byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    int length = bin.available();
    buff = new byte[length];
    while ( bin.read( buff, 0, length ) != -1 ) {
    byteArrayOutputStream.write( buff, 0, length );
    bin.close();
    catch(Exception e){
    The class about is used to take the image out of the database and store it in an object which is then streamed out through a servlet to display on the jsp page.

    that depends. Putting the images in BLOBs prevents the file locations stored in the database from getting out of synch with the filesystem when sysadmins decide to reorganise directory structures or "archive" "old" files that noone uses anyway.True, but it really comes down to a business decision (cost-benefit analysis). If you have the bucks, the expertise, and the time, go with the Blobs, otherwise go with the flat files.

  • RE: Images from Database into W

    I've found that a good way to store images was not in the database, but
    in files on the server in GIF format and then store the filenames in the
    database. That way you avoid the BinaryData mess, the cursor
    requirement for blobs, and can store in a compressed form..
    You just have the service read in the image from the data file and pass
    it back to the requestor, if I remember right.. Also nice because the
    same GIF files can be used in normal HTML web pages..

    Reply: Images from Database into Web SDK 1.1 page
    Hi,
    I want to be able to read images in from a database and have Forte
    generate a web page with those images.
    Does anyone know what the MIME type would be for a Forte ImageData
    object? Do I have to store the images into the database in gif format
    or is there some other MIME format that Forte uses to store ImageData
    objects. Also, can Netscape or Internet Explorer read those images?
    Here is the ReturnImage page builder method I created:
    =============================================================
    Response : HTTPResponse = new();
    LUIObject_ID : Integer;
    LUIObject_TD : TextData = new();
    aLUIObject : LUIObject;
    aBinaryData : BinaryData = new();
    aStream : MemoryStream = new();
    // Retrieve LUIObject_ID from http parameters
    LUIObject_TD = pRequest.FindNameValue('LUIObject_ID');
    LUIObject_ID = LUIObject_TD.IntegerValue;
    // Retrieve aLUIObject for the specified LUIObject_ID from the
    database.
    // This object contains various ImageData attributes which contain the
    // icons to display on the web page.
    aLUIObject = SODIInfraSOMgrSO.SelectLUIObject(LUIObject_ID);
    aBinaryData.SetAllocatedSize(aLUIObject.ClosedLargeIconSize);
    aStream.Open(accessMode = SP_AM_READ_WRITE, isBinary = TRUE);
    aStream.WriteSerialized(object=aLUIObject.ClosedLargeIcon);
    aStream.Seek(0);
    aStream.ReadBinary(target = aBinaryData);
    // Not sure what MIME type to specify here for ImageData objects
    // read in from a database. Any ideas??????????
    Response.AssignBinaryResponse(aBinaryData, 'image/x-bitmap');
    return Response;

  • Load image into Photo Album

    I'm new to Oracle.

    And how?
    If not,how to load image into database?

    Yes you can. You can load media into the database into the photo album tables.
    Is this what you want to do? What exactly are you trying to accomplish.
    You can also use PL/SQL to put images into the database into your own schema (as with other database information)
