Here is my code but i receive the message that only 6 byes have been read
What is wrong? Could anyone enlighten me?
-------------------------------------------------------------------
use DBI;
$LONG_RAW_TYPE=24; # Oracle type id for blobs
$dbh = DBI->connect( "DBI:Oracle:host=$host;sid=$sid", $username, $password)
or die "Connecting : $DBI::errstr\n ";
open(BLOB, "john.doc");
$bytes = 0;
$bytes = read(BLOB, $buf, 500000);
print STDERR "Read $bytes bytes...\n";
close(BLOB);
$stmt = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO hr.documents (documentid ,
document_name, document) VALUES ('1','john.doc','$bytes')") || die "\nPrepare
error: $DBI::err .... $DBI::errstr\n";
# Bind variable. Note that long raw (blob) values must have their
attrib explicitly specified
$attrib{'ora_type'} = $LONG_RAW_TYPE;
$stmt->bind_param("john.doc", $buf, \%attrib);
$stmt->execute() || die "\nExecute error: $DBI::err ....
$DBI::errstr\n";
print STDERR "Complete.\n";
