I think the problem is nothing to do with lo, you are trying to insert an
integer into a varchar field, try
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('1');

This means you're trying to insert an integer value into the
"description" column, which is text. It has nothing to do with large
objects.
To insert an LO into a database, you do the following:
BEGIN a transaction
Call lo_create() to make a new large object. The return value is the
OID of the LO, which you will need later.
Call lo_write() and lo_close() to put data into the LO
Insert the OID you got from lo_create() in the referencing column
("picture", in your case)
COMMIT the transaction
It's a little annoying but that's how it works.

Hi Adam,
I am sorry for the misunderstanding, when I compose the e-mail I forgot
the ' ' on the 1 BUT the error is the same, I made:
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('1')
and I get the error:
ERROR: invalid input syntax for integer: ""
I am sure that there is some problem with LO.

Rodrigo Carvalhaes

Hi Doug!
Thanks for your e-mail BUT the point is how I insert data on a table
when the column lo have no value ( NULL), to insert the lo I have no
problem BUT the problem is when the column should have no value...

Try inserting an explicit NULL:
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('1', NULL);

If the "lo" field isn't NOT NULL than you should have no problem. The error message in your previous email came from trying to insert an integer into a text column. If you are still having problems please post your table definitions and the exact query that is causing trouble. -Doug
Hi Douglas,
Thanks for your promptly answer. Here is the "step by step":
CREATE TABLE test
(
description varchar(20),
picture lo
)
WITHOUT OIDS;
INSERT INTO test (description) VALUES ('1');
And then, the error : INSERT INTO test (description) VALUES ('1')
What I am trying to do is insert data only on the column description,
leaving the column picture null (because for this tuple there is no image).

Rodrigo Carvalhaes

do you really need to use lo module ?
try this ...
CREATE TABLE test
(
description varchar(20),
picture oid
)
WITHOUT OIDS;
if you want to import a BLOB :
insert into test values ("toto", lo_import('mypicture'))
and if you want no value
insert into test values ("toto", 0)

This example works fine for me. What's more, that error message doesn't
seem to have anything to do with LO columns --- it implies you were
trying to insert into an integer column. (The error message could not
be triggered by insertion into a varchar column either, contrary to some
claims made elsewhere in this thread...)
Are you sure that you are inserting into the table you think you are?
I'm wondering about multiple tables named "test" in different schemas,
for instance ...

Hmm - works here (Linux, 7.4.7)
CREATE TABLE lotest4 (description varchar, picture lo) WITHOUT OIDS;
INSERT INTO lotest4 (description) VALUES ('1');
SELECT * FROM lotest4;
description | picture
-------------+---------
1 |
Are you sure table "test" looks like that?

And do you need:
INSERT INTO test (description) VALUES ('1');
