Using the JDBC driver from http://www.oracle.com/st/products/jdbc/html/jdbc_collateral.html
didn't work well in my case, i could only feed up to 1900 bytes of
BLOB (as LONG RAW) data.
Bigger sizes only filled 3 bytes into the database.
Switching to the standard Linux-Oracle 8.0.5 distribution thin JDBC
driver works well now:
Its in the directory .... oracle/jdbc/lib/classes111.zip
