Without a code sample it is pretty hard to offer any specific advice about
what you are doing wrong.
Here is what I used to load some files. All the $file____ variables are
set above this block.
$localname = "/home/tdyson/" . $filename;
$fp = fopen($localname,"r");
$buffer = fread($fp,filesize($localname));
fclose($fp);
$conn = pg_connect("host=myhost.sybex.com port=5432 dbname=my_db
user=my_name password=my_password ");
pg_query ($conn, "begin");
$oid = pg_lo_create ($conn);
$rs = pg_exec($conn,"insert into download_links (file_size,
file_name, file_date, product_id, file_version, the_file)
values('" . $filesize . "','" . $filename . "','"
.$filedate . "','" . $product_id . "','" . $fileversion . "','" . $oid .
"')"); // the_file field type must be "oid"
$handle = pg_lo_open ($conn, $oid, "w");
pg_lo_write ($handle, $buffer);
pg_lo_close ($handle);
pg_query ($conn, "commit");
pg_close();
