Hi, i'm trying to store files encrypted in postgres 8.3.4, using sym_encrypt_bytea function.
this is quoted from the postgres8.3 documentation, thats was my guide, below is the php code i have used to make it, with no results and the respective errors.
F.20.3.1. pgp_sym_encrypt()
pgp_sym_encrypt(data text, psw text [, options text ]) returns bytea
pgp_sym_encrypt_bytea(data bytea, psw text [, options text ]) returns bytea
Encrypt data with a symmetric PGP key psw. The options parameter can contain option settings, as described below.
F.20.3.2. pgp_sym_decrypt()
pgp_sym_decrypt(msg bytea, psw text [, options text ]) returns text
pgp_sym_decrypt_bytea(msg bytea, psw text [, options text ]) returns bytea
Decrypt a symmetric-key-encrypted PGP message.
Decrypting bytea data with pgp_sym_decrypt is disallowed. This is to avoid outputting invalid character data. Decrypting originally textual data with pgp_sym_decrypt_bytea is fine.
The options parameter can contain option settings, as described below.
F.20.3.7. Options for PGP functions
Options are named to be similar to GnuPG. An option's value should be given after an equal sign; separate options from each other with commas. For example:
pgp_sym_encrypt(data, psw, 'compress-algo=1, cipher-algo=aes256')
All of the options except convert-crlf apply only to encrypt functions. Decrypt functions get the parameters from the PGP data.
The most interesting options are probably compress-algo and unicode-mode. The rest should have reasonable defaults.
THIS IS MY CODE..
<?php
$fp = fopen($tmp_name, "rb");
$buffer = fread($fp, filesize($tmp_name));
fclose($fp);
$buffer=pg_escape_bytea($buffer);
$sql = "INSERT INTO foo(nombre, descripcion, archivo_bytea, mime, size) VALUES ('$nombre', '$desc', pgp_sym_encrypt_bytea('$buffer',123,'cipher-algo=aes256'), '$type', $size)";
?>
ERRORS:
ERROR: No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts
ERROR: function pgp_sym_encrypt_bytea(unknown, integer, unknown) does not exist
OTHER CODE WITH EXPLICIT TYPES
<?php
$fp = fopen($tmp_name, "rb");
$buffer = fread($fp, filesize($tmp_name));
fclose($fp);
$buffer=pg_escape_bytea($buffer);
$sql = "INSERT INTO foo(nombre, descripcion, archivo_bytea, mime, size) VALUES ('$nombre', '$desc', pgp_sym_encrypt_bytea('$buffer'::bytea,123::text,'cipher-algo=aes256'::text), '$type', $size)";
?>
ERRORS:
ERROR: function pgp_sym_encrypt_bytea(bytea, text, text) does not exist
any help is welcome!
