Greetings,
just saw a message with an example of inserting a BLOB
value using load_file(). Can't get load_file() to

mysql select load_file('/home/alex/post.html') from

+---+
|
mysql probably does not have search permission on /home/alex.
copy the file to /tmp and see what happens.

You CAN.

Yes. If you have FTP Access or similiar, I would prefere this!
Some remarks from the manual :

For medical imaging, at least in radiology (PACS), you usually see the
terabytes of images being stored on a NAS somewhere, and the database
itself is actually pretty small just pointing to filenames of where the
pictures are located. This keeps the database small and fast, and lets

Yep but it depends on the size of the pictures. We produce certificates
here and we hold images of engineer signatures
