[PHP] Store Image in Access Database
Hi, I'm trying to store a binary file in an access database, I'm using an ole type, and I think that it's getting inserted OK. My problem is that I don't know how to pull it out... How do you select the stuff that's in an ole object out of the database and display it, a jpg, for example. I can't even get the raw data. I've tried converting it to base 16 and inserting it, but I still can't pull it out. I know how to do this in mysql, so posting that won't help. I need to know how to do this with access. Thanks Mike. --- -- * * Mike Baranski * * Security Managment Consulting * * 919-788-9200 Phone* * 919-510-0037 Fax * * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[PHP] Metabse and ODBC Blobs, was [Re: Store Image in Access Database]
Sorry about the previous one, that was a mistake.
I have the following code to insert a blob into an access OLE object field:
if(($prepared_query=MetabasePrepareQuery($database,"UPDATE incident_blob SET
data_blob=?, description='new'")))
{
$binary_lob=array(
"Type"=>"inputfile",
"Database"=>$database,
"Error"=>"",
"FileName"=>"test.php"
);
if(($success=MetabaseCreateLOB($binary_lob,$blob)))
{
MetabaseQuerySetBLOB($database,$prepared_query,1,$blob,"data_blob");
if(!MetabaseExecuteQuery($database,$prepared_query))
$error=MetabaseError($database);
MetabaseDestroyLOB($blob);
}
else
{
$error=$binary_lob["Error"];
echo "Error 1 (CreateLOB): $error\n";
}
MetabaseFreePreparedQuery($database,$prepared_query);
}
else
{
$error=MetabaseError($database);
echo "Error 2 (Prepare): $error\n";
}
I can connect and query the database otherwise, and it works fine. The
problem is with the Blobs, that update statement is not getting run. There's
only 1 row in the table, but the description and ole object do not get
updated. If I switch the driver to use mysql as opposed to odbc, it works
fine on an identical table (on linux, not windows). Any ideas?

Re: [PHP] Re: Metabse and ODBC Blobs, was [Re: Store Image in Access Database]
OK, first, that's right out of the metabase manual, with names changed to
protect the innocent. Second, the example won't work, it gives syntax errors
with the MS driver on creating the test db and tables, but I fixed the DB
part, but the tables still won't create themselves, it still gives errors.
I've hacked it up a little bit, but it doesen't look like the test stuff will
work for access. Has anyone successfully done this, and how? I cannot
believe that I'm the only person who's ever stored binary data in Access,
regardless of how bad of an idea it is...

[PHP] Informix.so module
Has anyone gotten this working with the newest version of PHP? We have an app that uses this, and can't seem to get it to compile. Bug 15177 is marked as critical, but nothing has been done.

[PHP] Upload file problems on Win 2K
Hi, I'm trying to fix upload file problems on Win 2K server. I've got the allow directive set to on in the PHP.ini file, and the permissions set to give everyone full access on the directory specified in the ini file. The file never shows up. I'm using code identical to working code for a linux app, but we need it to run under MS as well. The ini file seems right, are there any major differences, and is there any reason the identical code doesen't work. The file does not ever show up on the server...
