Thread: RE: using large objects with jdbc
Ok, first you run it from the src/interface/jdbc directory, not from within example. Then you run it using: java example.blobtest jdbc:postgresql:mydb user passwd Where mydb is your database, user & passwd are obvious. To get some extra debug info, add d to the end. Also, make sure that the current directory is in the CLASSPATH.

Are you importing the postgresql.largeobject package? ie import postgresql.largeobject.*; Peter -- Peter Mount Enterprise Support Officer, Maidstone Borough Council Email: petermount@maidstone.gov.uk WWW: http://www.maidstone.gov.uk All views expressed within this email are not the views of Maidstone Borough Council -----Original Message----- From: Manika dey [mailto:bithi@plasma.ernet.in] Sent: Friday, August 25, 2000 10:19 PM To: Peter Mount Cc: postgres-inter Subject: [INTERFACES] RE: using large objects with jdbc Hi, thanks it worked from postgres directory above example dir ie: from postgres/postgresql-6.3.2/src/interfaces/jdbc but i am having the following problem * if i compile if it form my home dir by copying it in anyother by commenting thesentence package example i get error of Class LargeObjectManager not found in type declaration. int oid = lobj.create(LargeObjectManager.READ|LargeObjectManager.WRITE); * it moves only those files to database which in the dir of postgres and not the ones which are in my home dir how can i solve this problem ------------------------------------------------------------------- From:- | Ms. Manika Dey. |Ph.No:--Engineer-SC (Comp.

Hi, can storing and retrieving of data from postgresql-6.3.2 be done distributedly using corba (e.g visibroker for java) if so can anyone give a sample of it thank you manika
[Reply from retep.org.uk as I can't seem to post from work anymore, incase you see two replies to this.]... In the source (src/interfaces/jdbc/example/corba) there's an example of using Postgresql & JDBC using corba. It only works for JDK1.2 and later, and was included in the source since 6.5.1. In theory the example should work with the 6.3.x driver as it uses only standard API calls.

The driver won't be compatible, but if you look at the source to the 6.5.x series you'll find a directory called example/corba. In there is an example of using postgresql, jdbc & corba together. PS: This only works for JDK1.2 and later.

Hi, i am at present working on postgresql6.3 on sun solaris2.5 i want help for my following problem : * how can i transfer data from window NT/window95 to the database of postgresql6.3 on sun solaris2.5* the above mentionedmachines are all on the same network.* i am using jdbc driver with jdk1.1.4 with servlet for my present work. i will be thankful if some one can suggest me a solution for this as soon as possible. with regards manika ------------------------------------------------------------------- From:- | Ms. Manika Dey. |Ph.No:--Engineer-SC (Comp.

Hi, You can transfer data to the server thru an fileupload field in your forms, then the web server will make that file available at a temp location to the cgi. I use PHP for my programs, for me it's quite simple to track where are the files, probably there must be an specification in the servlets api on how to deal with fileuploads. Here we have machines running Solaris, Linux and Windows, and this kind of treatment is working just fine in our tests (this implementation's platform independent). Just watch out the configs around where it sets a max size that can be uploaded (servers, cgis...). Just on remark: some OSs have a limitation in the max ammount of files that can reside in one single directory: when it's reached it starts to have an slower acces in that dir as more files are put into it. The "lo" interface puts all the files into the /...../pgsql/data/base directory, so, in a system with heavy use of large objects, (as mine's going to be) it would degradate the performance of the backend. I'm also running Solaris where I run the postgres backend and the web daemon (Apache), and I've found no information on how much files I can put into a single dir, but had the information (from a person that works here) that Solaris has an maximum ammount of files per filesystem (thought he couldn't tell me how much), so, the possibility of having an limit in a single dir isn't discarted. Just for an example: Squid (an proxy server for the unix platform) create several sub-dirs (and a couple more in each of them) in the main cache dir to avoid system degradation. As I have noticed this in the few days, I'm going to write my own code on how to deal with those files - beside using the lo interface provided - before my system enters in a production state. Another point it that it's hard to track an lo object in a case of a system crash. Is it too much paranoya or not? Any comments are welcome. Igor.

I am using largeobject for storing my datafiles in database postgresql6.3.2 but when I try to retrieve my data from database to a file.i get the following type of error Exception caught. java.sql.SQLException: Fastpath: ERROR: lo_tell: invalid large object descriptor (0) java.sql.SQLException: Fastpath: ERROR: lo_tell: invalid large object descriptor (0) at postgresql.fastpath.Fastpath.fastpath(Fastpath.java:135) at postgresql.fastpath.Fastpath.fastpath(Fastpath.java:181) at postgresql.fastpath.Fastpath.getInteger(Fastpath.java:193) at postgresql.largeobject.LargeObject.tell(LargeObject.java:206) at postgresql.largeobject.LargeObject.size(LargeObject.java:221) at dfile.<init>(dfile.java:86) at dfile.main(dfile.java:128) how can i get rid of the above mentioned errors. manika ------------------------------------------------------------------- From:- | Ms. Manika Dey. |Ph.No:--Engineer-SC (Comp.

> how can i get rid of the above mentioned errors. PostgreSQL 6.3.2 is *very* old, and a lot has been improved since that release (including many improvements and fixes in the large objects). Upgrading to 7.0.2 would be a very good idea, and most likely will make the LO errors go away. - Thomas
