Upload to file system

Hi everyone,
I need to upload a file to the server file system. Is there a way to do it, without inserting the document to the database and retrieve it again ?
Best regards,
Othman.

I looked at the source code and I have one question.
Does this mean you have to insert the txt file to a table and then read it from there
to store it to a system file?
This can not be done by just sending the information to a system file.
Thanks
Howard

  • How to upload files residing in a folder on local file system .

    Hi, I have a problem when trying to upload files.
    I have a folder in my local system and have n files in it. Now if i use the file upload element i need to click n times to upload these files. So i want to achieve programatically to upload all the files in a folder given the folder name to the application. Is this possible or is there any restriction to achieve this through webdynpro.
    Also how to know programatically all the names of files and folders in a particular folder during web dynpro session.

  • Uploaded Files stored in Oracle 10G database or in Unix File system

    Hey All,
    I am trying to understand best practices on storing uploaded files. Should you store within the database itself (this is the current method we are using by leveraging BLOB storage) or use a BFILE locator to use the files system storage (we have our DB's on UNIX) . . .or is there another method I should be entertaining? I have read arguments on both sides of this question. I wanted to see what answers forum readers could provide!! I understand there are quite a few factors but the situation I am in is as follows:
    1) Storing text and pdf documents.
    2) File sizes range from a few Kb to up to 15MB in size
    3) uploaded files can be deleted and updated / replaced quite frequently
    Right now we have an Oracle stored procedure that is uploading the files binary data into a BLOB column on our table. We have no real "performance" problems with this method but are entertaining the idea of using the UNIX file system for storage instead of the database.
    Thanks for the insight!!

    Anthony,
    First word you must learn here in this forum is RESPECT.
    If you require any further explanation, just say so.
    BLOB compared with BFILE
    Security:
    BFILEs are inherently insecure, as insecure as your operating system (OS).
    Features:
    BFILEs are not writable from typical database APIs whereas BLOBs are.
    One of the most important features is that BLOBs can participate in transactions and are recoverable. Not so for BFILEs.
    Performance:
    Roughly the same.
    Upping the size of your buffer cache can make a BIG improvement in BLOB performance.
    BLOBs can be configured to exist in Oracle's cache which should make repeated/multiple reads faster.
    Piece wise/non-sequential access of a BLOB is known to be faster than a that of a BFILE.
    Manageability:
    Only the BFILE locator is stored in an Oracle BACKUP. One needs to do a separate backup to save the OS file that the BFILE locator points to. The BLOB data is backed up along with the rest of the database data.
    Storage:
    The amount of table space required to store file data in a BLOB will be larger than that of the file itself due to LOB index which is the reason for better BLOB performance for piece wise random access of the BLOB value.

  • Upload file in to file system using Apex

    Hi...
    I have tried UTL_FILE to upload file in Directory. But First i have to upload file in Table in BLOB datatype and then copy it to file system using BFILE.
    I have to store files in file system as per requirements.
    I want to upload file directly to File System. Suggest me the right way...
    Thank You in advance........
    Edited by: user639262 on Aug 28, 2008 2:11 PM

    Apex only supports upload into a table.
    If you want to upload directly to the file system you should look into the possibilities of your application server. Maybe you could find a piece of code in Java or PHP that performs an upload.
    good luck, DickDral

    Hi ,
    Please verify on the space in temporary directory which is used on server side (on the engine where this webdynpro java application is running)
    When file is up loaded WD java runtime uses temporary directory of Java runtime to store/read this data .
    Clear all temporary directory folders/check whether directory has Read/Write permission(OS level ) assigned to it .

  • Can you upload to a file system directly and not to wwv_flow_file_objects$

    The following link shows how to upload a file. These files that are uploaded are stored in a table called wwv_flow_file_objects$ .
    However what if I want to upload a file but save it to the file system (share) and not put it into wwv_flow_file_objects$ is that possible
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31036_01/doc/appdev.22/b28839/up_dn_files.htm#CJAHDJDA
    When you use the file upload item type, the files you upload are stored in a table called wwv_flow_file_objects$

    It has to be loaded to wwv_flow_file_objects$, but you can use the
    UTL_FILE package to write it to a directory the database has access to. Use FOPEN with open_mode wb and use the PUT_RAW procedure to write into the file. Use READ procedure of the DBMS_LOB package to read your BLOB in junks.
    UTL_FILE: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/u_file.htm#i1003526
    DBMS_LOB: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_lob.htm#i999170
    I think that should work.

  • Image: display from local drive, upload to server file system, and display from server

    Hello,
    I am using jdev 11.1.2.4.0...
    The requirement is that users would like to upload images from their local drive to server drive and they would like display images from server drive later.
    We don't want to keep images in database. I am not sure what the solution should be; however, I plan to ....
    1. create a table to keep an information of images -- image_id, image_location (server drive), image_filename
    2. create a page where users can enter image information and specific filename from a local drive (I think I will use inputFile component) and provide the preview button to display an image on screen before save it. To save data is to save information to the database and copy an image file to the server drive (the destination location for image files is predefined.)
    3. create another page where users can browse information from the database and display an image for a selected record by getting from the server.
    I need suggestions on...
    1. how to display an image on page from the local drive?
    2. how to copy a file from a local drive to a server?
    3. how to display an image on page from the server drive?
    Thank you.

    Where Timo saves images to the database, you save it to the file system (examples on how to do this from Java are available plenty if you just Google for it). Similar to Timo you then use the image tag to display images. The difference is that you can directly add the URL from the database table.
    The benefit of using a database to host images is that you are not dependent on file server structures though

  • Uploading file in file system or inserting it in database?

    Dear All,
    I am developing an application which will upload the files and store the information about file in database.
    I have a question that which is good practice?
    Uploading file in hard disk of server or inserting the file in database as BLOB?
    File size varies from 1 MB to 100 MB.
    Please suggest me good idea.

    malcolmmc wrote:
    The advantage of using a BLOB is that you can then access the file data from anywhere you can access the database, whereas a file path may be different from another client machine, or the file may be inaccessible.Another advantage is data integrity. I've encountered scenarios where file refernces in a database became invalid because an overzealous sys-admin deleted the files as stale after they'd reached a set age.
    Or someone decides to "restructure the file system" and the entire directory containing your files gets moved somewhere else (hopefully not to /dev/null).
    If the files are stored on different machines from the database the risk of this happening increases exponentially, if those machines are maintained by another company/department from the DBAs it goes through the roof.

    Hi,
    you can try using the method cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_open_dialog, this will open a popup allowing
    you to browse and selected the desired files from your system.
    Use this method along with the function module GUI_UPLOAD to upload all the desired files and their contents in SAP.
    Hope this was useful.
    Thanks and regards,
