error in inserting a long blob data

[ketulp_baroda]

Hi
I am storing the attachment in the database. For some file the data
gets stored in the database but for other files it gives a MySql
error. For eg. when I am trying to attach the file foo.txtit gets
stored in database correctly whereas the file bar.txt gives an error.
The error given is:


Traceback (most recent call last):

values['attachmentpath'] contains the file data.
The data type of the file data is LONGBLOB in MySql.
I am not getting why it works for some file but not for others.

Do you have single quotes in your attachment - these would confuse the mysql
parser. I don't remember how to quote them for mysql (in oracle its '' for
a single quote) - but thats in the manuals.

Diez,
From your error, you have a DB driver problem. MySql
says to use something like 'they''re' - double up the
inner '
