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();
