Обсуждение: Fw: lo_import problem

This is what works for me from the command line on Linux with PG 8.0.3:

INSERT into images VALUES ( lo_import('/tmp/white.jpg'), 'white');

What version of postgresql are you using?

This worked fine for me on a freshly installed 8.0.3 on Windows XP:

pics=# INSERT into images VALUES ( lo_import('C:\\Program Files\\PostgreSQL\\8.0\\Installation Notes.rtf'), 'notes');

"could not open server file" means that either the file does not exist, or the
user you are trying to access the file as does not have the rights to read it.

Again, check your permissions as I mentioned to you earlier.
