Hi, error 13 is permission denied
Remember that the full paths to files are for the server, and the 'user' running the server must have permission to read/write the file as required, not (necessarily) the user running the client.

Hello all, I am trying to insert the contents of a binary file into a blob data type using simple insert statement and the load_file(filename) function. Initially, the function was returning a NULL value. But eventually, I changed the 'File_priv' in the user table of mysql database to 'Y'. Now I am getting a new error... the Errcode : 13 and a message which says.. can't find stat file '/directory/file_name' I am using RH 7.1, and 3.23.36 version of mysql. I am running the server on this machine itself and I am the only user. All suggestions are welcome. I must solve this problem. regards venu ===== ============================================================ Venugopal Allavatam Ph: (res.): 949-361-6604 1100 Calle Del Cerro, (mobile): 949-842-1767 Apt.# 123-J, San Clemente, CA-92672 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ============================================================ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
