I can't offer any help with LDAP, but if your LDAP server can receive data in another way, you can use binaryEncode(data, ["hex","base64"]).
Oblio -----Original Message----- From: Vince Collins (NHJobs.com) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2007 3:20 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFLDAP uploading Image (binary) I've hit a wall and have a question. I have been able to write a form that allows the updating of all text fields within the LDAP directory using cfldap. What I need now is to provide the ability to upload an image and store that within LDAP. Here is where it breaks. <!--- upload file ---> <cffile action="upload" filefield="seljpegPhoto" destination="#root#\update\upload" nameconflict="makeunique"> <!--- read file as binary ---> <cffile action="READBINARY" file="#root#\update\upload\#file.serverfile#" variable="BinaryImageContent"> <!--- Replace with new image ---> <cfldap action="modify" DN="#qry_get_one_emp.distinguishedName#" attributes="jpegPhoto=#BinaryImageContent#" modifytype="replace" server="#LDAPServer#" username="#LDAPUsername#" password="#LDAPPassword#"> The resulting error: "ByteArray objects cannot be converted to strings." If I change the above to attributes="jpegPhoto=#ToBinary(BinaryImageContent)#" it is redundant and causes the same error. Is there some switch I am missing or something else I need to do in order to let CFLDAP know this is binary and to allow the update? I have found NO information on how to upload a binary object into LDAP using CFLDAP. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
