RE: IMAGES/PICTURES-MYSQL
Hi! I have seen in this page http://www.blobstreaming.org/ but i think that it´s quite difficult. I want to put only the url of the image, and as you said the pictures o images might be in the server folder, but what is the folder?

Hello!
I have tried the instructions that you explain to me. I have read also some
issues but doens´t work.
So i have done:

id=tableColumn6 sort=producto.image
ui:imageHyperlink
action=#{STOCKSOC.imageHyperlink1_action}
binding=#{STOCKSOC.imageHyperlink1} id=imageHyperlink1

http://www.nabble.com/file/p13894350/2.jpg
http://www.nabble.com/file/p13894350/3.jpg
I don´t know if my proyect is in the correct path (C:\Documents and
Settings\Ibai Leizea\Escritorio\gsg\SociedadGastronomica\) or the images
(C:\Documents and Settings\Ibai
Leizea\Escritorio\gsg\SociedadGastronomica\web\IMAGES). I have also proved
copying the IMAGE folder in other path, but it doesn´t work. I don´t know
specifically which is the server path.
Thanks to everybody!

Hello to everybody! I have read some messages about this topic but i haven´t resolved my problem yet. I am using mySQL Query Browser to make de schema. And i have a table (product) where there are some attributes (producto, precio, nUds,tipo)(spanish). All are relationated with one product (ex: heineken beer). So, i want to put another atribute image where i can put the image of all the products. But i have read that is imposible, that i have to put the path of the jpeg or gif, but i don´t know how. If anyone could help me i will be grateful.

RE: IMAGES/PICTURES-MYSQL
It all comes down to what you are most comfortable with. What I have done is to name each image file with a serial number (1.jpg, 2.gif, 3.png, ...) and store the path along with the real name of the image in a table row. Doing it this way means that you don't need to program logic to convert a blob in order to serve it up with a script, you just need to programmatically create a link to the image file and let the web server do it. I find that easier to work with, and certainly easier to debug.

Storing Images In MySQL
I figured I'd post a follow-up to the discussion earlier this week on issues relating to storing images in MySQL. In my opinion. Whether you store images in MySQL ultimately depends on whether you can setup a caching accelerator (like Squid) between you and your visitors. Storing images in the database adds a minimum of around 28 ms of latency. Cacheing makes this a mute point since images are once again stored as files. The main benefit is that you can more easily manage a large number of images by storing them in the database. Most people, those on shared hosting services, aren't going to likely have access to a caching accelerator, so originally storing images as files is probably going to be the best approach. The most common approach that I've seen is to create some sort of directory hiearchy and divide images in groups of 1000. Two other points came up while I was playing around with this. People on dial-up accessing test pages didn't notice any difference in performance - their average ping times to the server were around 120ms. I'm guessing their connection latency helped to buffer the difference between the two approaches. Pulling images from the database usually involves a script with a parameter that indicates which image to display. For example, like this: img src='http://www.myhost.com/display_image.php?id=5' Locally installed firewalls (Zone Alarm, McAfee Internet Security, and Norton Internet Security) all blocked the display of images that were served with a script like this. Getting the images to display required renaming the script, using Apache forcetype commands, and manually parsing the URL to get the image id to display. In other words, the url ended up like this: img src='http://www.myhost.com/display_image/5' Anyone who sends me a request can get copies of the scripts and help on trying to set something up to duplicate what I did. Thanks to everyone who helped me with this - especially Dreamwerx. -Ed -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
images from MySQL backend used with MS-Access 2000 frontend
Hi everyone, I am new to MySQL. I am starting a database project for a medium-sized medical office. I chose MS-Access (on 10-terminal pre-existing Win2K intranet) for rapid front-end dev and familiarity to the existing users. I plan to use MySQL on Linux server for backend for its speed, great support and ease of use. The database will consist of doctor's reports, schematic drawings and photos (500K JPGs and 50K PICTs). I am planning to implement that with BLOB or, alternatively, with file system while storing links to files. Later we may add webaccess through MySQL webserving or by using Access webserving options. Has anybody done anything similar? What is the best way to implement image storage (and, in future, movies, maybe)?

RE: images from MySQL backend used with MS-Access 2000 frontend
I would recommend storing the images on the filesystem and put the information about those images (along with the path to the image) in MySQL. If you plan to have lots of images, implement a nice logical directory structure to keep them in as in my experience linux ext2/3 is fast reading/writing files in that scenario and can be slow in retrieving files in a single directory containing large amounts of files.

Re: inserting images to mysql - is it possible?
Hi Gerald- I understand the pros and cons of db vs filesystem, and for images (static, rarely changing) it makes sense. I was pursuing any info about large chunk transfers or fragmented storage issues for large field tables. I'm working with a table containing historical information for 67,000 stocks and indexes. Each record has a data field (mediumtext) which contains the csv data for the stock (approx 30K). Each record needs to be updated each night (append that day's row of data to the mediumtext field) and need to be available ASAP to all web-servers (currently 4). The file is now about 1.5GB, and keeping/updating shadow copies of 70,000 files on 4+ nodes seemed like a problem which would not scale well. The read-side application will access less than 10% of the records in the database each day (but may access many records repeatedly). bob.

RE: images with mysql
Don't forget that the images can be stored *outside* the root dir. Access them using ../../ until you reach your img dir. There's no way to get to the images directly then.

Re: images with mysql
Not an issue since you don't need to edit the htaccess file for every file. You set it for the whole directory. The only reason for preventing ppl to access files would be theft of bandwith. If you worry about ppl being able to get the images then you shouldn't publish them at all. You can't protect them from being dumped with printscreen. Another solution would be to change the the path at random and copy all images to the new location while you copy a special image on the old location. You have no idea how fast ppl will stop using your pics if they have the text stolen from ... where you put your domainname on the dots. This would require you to have the path to the file in your code. HTTP REFERER is not always set correctly so I wouldn't trust that to much. B. At 09:13 21-03-2003 +0100, lasse wrote: sure you can.

RE: images with mysql
I had a go with putting a image into MySQL and it did not work. But what I did do is put the directory and image location /image/smile.jpg. This is very good way to use the index of the db and the speed of the file structure. Sorry if this was not what you were looking for but I hope it helps a bit.

Lai Liu-yuan wrote: Well, this may be off topic. In my case, I store tens of thousands of images, gradually growing. All of them are quite small, most around 30*30 gray scale. Would it still be faster to store them on disk? In most cases yes. We have over 3.5 million images stored and mananaging them from the database side would be almost impossible. There are many benifits to using the file system instead of the database. 1. You can archive the images on cd/dvd/tape as new ones are received/added. 2. Try converting or moving databases with 200GB of blob files. 3. The larger the database, the longer it takes to retreive information. 4. Data from a database is retreived one row at a time so you have to wait for each image. Storing the path in the database allows you to fetch a row, spawn a child process to fetch the image, and continue to fetch rows from the database while the child processes handle getting the images. 5. Mysql will not cache the images. The OS however will cache disk reads. 6. The database has a finite set of resources. You can add many file servers, each specific to what type of image you're pulling. We store stuff by date so we know to pull 1998 images from fileserver a and 1999 images from fileserver b, etc... The OS on each fileserver can then cache what is requested most often.

Storing images in MySQL bad idea, performance-wise?
I'm working on a simple content management system that uses PHP and MySQL for updating a web site's text (stored in a MySQL database). (The PHP scripts that do the updating (my stuf) live on one web server, the actual DB data to be updated (my client's stuff) live on another.) So far, I've only had to he able to update the text content of a site--therefore, I've only had to bother to store textual data in the client's DB. But now the client wants to be able to upload/change/delete certain pictures on their web site--using my CMS tool--so I am faced with the following problem: Do I store all such images in the DB? (Which I understand reduces performance.) Or do I--somehow--store the images as files on the client's web server? And if so, how?

Re: Storing images in MySQL bad idea, performance-wise?
Rene: I think a good deal depends on the size of the image files themselves. There are a number of apps that store small files (i.e.: icons, small gif's, etc.), which seems to make sense. Larger files may be problematic. There was quite a discussion on this issue here just last week ... do a search of the list archive for 'blob versus file' and read some informed opinions.

RE: Images in MySql
Eric, Generally you would store references to the images in the database as a full or partial pathname.

Re: storing images in MYSQl database
phani krishna writes: how to store the images in mysql database and how to retrieve the images onto teh VB form.how to do it. What about it? Lemme guess, you're wondering how to do it, right? Two points: 1) Images are just like any other data. Just store them in a BLOB. As with all other data you need to escape certain characters, but hopefully you knew that already. 2) Don't store that sort of data in the database. There are a larg number of reasons why this is a bad thing to do. Store them in the file system and just let your database contain information about the images, such as where to find them in the file system. //C -- Carl Troein - Círdan / Istari-PixelMagic - UIN 16353280 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://pixelmagic.dyndns.org/~cirdan/ Amiga user since '89, and damned proud of it too. - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

you should probably just store the images on your server, and provide the location to the image in the table...much quicker.

Re: inserting images in mysql tables
IMHO, (take it for what it is worth) You shouldn't. Store a reference to the image in the database.(either a file system reference, or if you are doing HTML, store the URL) I've yet to see a good reason for stuffing an image in a database. In most cases the OS/file system will handle the image faster than the database will. Sorry, probably not the answer you wanted.

images and mysql
Dear Sir/Madam,
I use a mysql database on the web and use php to get information from it.
Now I want to use pictures/images in the database. I've included a php script
The information I get from the mysql database in a while statement. My question is,
how do I get the picture available on the web, must I put this in the mysql-database
and how do I do this?
If anyone can help me, than I hope to get an e-mail from you at: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks,
Johan.

Re: is it possible to store images in mysql db?
Actually ... there are often some good reasons one might want to store pictures in BLOBs. For example, our integrated application gives the administrators at our various customer sites the ability to associate a series of icons on a toolbar with a wide range of programmable functions. In addition to the functions themselves, we want the customer's Administrator to be able to associate standard .ICO or .BMP icon graphics with the various toolbar positions and the functions they have decided to associate with them. We also want the customer's Administrator to be able to use standard icon graphic editors to create their own pictures, and use our utility program to slam them into the BLOB. If we store them as seperate binaries, then we have to keep track of the path to them. On an NT network, any goofball (usually with Admin privs!) can use Explorer to find/move/delete these files. If we store them as BLOBs in the database, we know exactly where they are. G.

Look at section 7.19 SELECT Syntax of the manual. The line
