Trying to execute a stored procedure gives: Syntax error or access violatio

Question

Hi,
I have a stored procedure that runs fine in sqplus:
EXEC load_image('distribuido.JPG', '1');
When i try to execute it in PHP it gives me this error:
[Oracle][ODBC]Syntax error or access violation.
In php i'm using ODBC functions, with the same user configured in dsn. The sql i run in php is 100% equal...
What's the problem and how should i run this procedure in php (or maybe grant more privileges to this user??)
The procedure is:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE load_image( filename VARCHAR2, vid_membro INTEGER )
AS
file_lob BFILE;
binary_lob BLOB;
mime_type fotografia.foto_tipo%type;
extension_pos NUMBER;
BEGIN
extension_pos := INSTR( filename, '.' );
mime_type := 'image/' || SUBSTR( filename,
extension_pos + 1,
LENGTH( filename ) );
INSERT INTO fotografia (id_foto, id_cat, id_membro, nota_media, num_votos, foto_tipo, fotografia)
VALUES (fotografias_id.nextval, 1, vid_membro, 0, 0, mime_type, empty_blob())
RETURNING fotografia INTO binary_lob;
file_lob := BFILENAME( 'IMAGES', filename );
dbms_lob.fileOpen ( file_lob, dbms_lob.file_readOnly );
dbms_lob.loadFromFile( binary_lob,
file_lob,
dbms_lob.getLength( file_lob ) );
dbms_lob.fileClose ( file_lob );
END;

'exec' is an sqlplus directive. If you run this query in PHP, try:
$query = "BEGIN
load_image('distribuido.JPG', '1');
END;";
(you may have to remove the ; after 'END')
