I'm very new to web development and I have hit a snag in my project that I am hoping someone can help me with. I am trying to allow users to upload photos into my database using the formview control and the fileupload control. I have specified the data type as image, but when I try to upload a photo or just pass a null value I get the following error.
Operand type clash: sql_variant is incompatible with image
Does anyone know why this might be? Thanks very much.
Hi, how do I go about inserting image into the SQL Compact Edition Database? This is something similar to the Photo Column in the Employees Table in Northwind Database.
I have set the Photo Column properties as 'image', but all that appears is a white icon with a red x. How do I change this to my own image?
Hello, Could someone give me the code for inserting an image into the database. I have the field declared in my table. And the image needs a type value because it receives the message "nvarchar is incompatible with image"
I have inherited a VS 2005 database with a table that has a column of type IMAGE. I need to change the image for one of the rows in the table. I have the new image in a *.PNG file on my C: drive. What is the correct method for inserting this file into the IMAGE column.
Found a lot of tutorials about inserting images into a database. Every tutorial was given in ASP.NET 1.1 and not in 2.0. Does anyone have a tutorial about inserting images into a database with 2.0 and VB??Thanks
I need to store a few thousand images in a sql server database. I've managed to write the asp code to retrieve images that are already in the pubs database, but haven't been able to find a satisfactory way of inserting new pictures in the first place.
At the moment we're using Notes and its great 'cos you just cut and paste them in. But now we need to take them all out and put them into sql server it's proving to be a nightmare. Any clues anyone??
Hello, I was wondering, how do I insert a file in an Image type column from the SQL server 2000 corporative administrator? I have a table that contains information about all the programs we run here, and I have a column that I set to image type, I want to put the icon of my programs there..
I have a problem with bcp utility. Out-bound queries work but in-bound ones do not. Here's an example of in bound query which should insert image into table called 'Image'. There's a id column and image column in Image-table.
C:TempSQL>bcp GAMEDB.dbo.Image in mb.jpg -U xxx -P xxx -T And here's what bcp prompts me with:
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 2Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].SQLState = HYT00, NativeError = 0Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expiredSQLState = 08001, NativeError = 2Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure maybe caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allowremote connections.
Hi All, I have a form (asp website with the default.aspx and default.aspx.cs) which I use to connect to the SQL Server 2005 database and insert, update,get and delete data to and from it. In the table I have a column called Picture to insert a photo (usually bmp files) which I declared as a varbinary(max). ID is the primary key and is an int (i tried it to be numeric & varchar). I am trying to insert data into the table using a form with this syntax: SqlConnection enter_conn = new SqlConnection("user id=;" + "password=;server=servername;" + "Trusted_Connection=yes;" + "database=Member Profiles; " + "connection timeout=30"); enter_conn.Open(); string insertSql = "Insert dbo.Details(ID,Last_Name,First_Name,Middle_Initial,Project, Organization,Manager,Current_Skills,Biography,Hobbies, Picture) Select 1001, 'ABC','XYZ','R',' Website Development','ACT',LKM','ASP.Net, C#.Net, SQL Server 2005, SharePoint, Java, ',' developing the new website for ACT using SharePoint and SQL Server 2005', ' Singing, Listening to Music, Dancing, Cooking, Swimming', BulkColumn from Openrowset( Bulk 'C:\photos\rose.bmp', Single_Blob) as Picture";
SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand(insertSql, enter_conn); int i = myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
I have no data in the table and am doing the first insert. Though the data gets inserted I am getting this exception: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_Details'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.Details'. The statement has been terminated. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteNonQueryTds(String methodName, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at _Default.Enter_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in c:Documents and SettingskrkondaXMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005WebSitesMember ProfilesDefault.aspx.cs:line 82
Can someone please suggest anything???? I appreciate a quick response please!!!!
Hi, I have a website and i am uploading the gif image to the database. i have used varchar(500) as the datatype and i am saving the file in the webserver so the path to it c:intepub....a.gif
my upload table has the folliwing feilds UploadId Int Identity, Description, FileName, DiskPath varchar(500), weblocation varchar(500). I have a main sproc for the report where i am doing a inner join with other table to get the path of the gif..
So my question is how can i get a picture to show up on the report. . What kinda datatype the gif file should be stored in the database? If it is stored as a varchar how can i access it and what is best way to reference that particular.
we have tables with many image columns. We fill these image columns via ODBC and SQLPutData as described in MSDN etc (using SQL_LEN_DATA_AT_EXEC(...), calling SQLParamData and sending the data in chunks of 4096 bytes when receiving SQL_NEED_DATA).
The SQLPutData call fails under the following conditions with sqlstate 08S01
- The database resides on SQL Server 2000 - The driver is SQL Native Client - The table consists e.g. of one Identity column (key column) and nine image columns - The data to be inserted are nine blocks of data with the following byte size:
1: 6781262 2: 119454
3: 269 4: 7611
5: 120054
6: 269
7: 8172
8: 120054
9: 269 The content of the data does not matter, (it happens also if only zero bytes are written), nor does the data origin (file or memory).
All data blocks including no 7 are inserted. If the first chunk of data block 8 should be written with SQLPutData the function fails and the connection is broken. There are errors such as "broken pipe" or "I/O error" depending on the used network protocol.
If data no 7 consists of 8173 bytes instead of 8172 all works again. (Changing the 4096 chunk size length does not help)
Has anybody encountered this or a similar phenomenon?
But now I am getting error "General Network Error. Check your network documentation" after specifying Use existing stored procedure in TableAdpater Configuration Wizard.
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.Insert_MailSignature( @Singnature image )
AS
SET NOCOUNT OFF;
INSERT INTO MailsSignature (Singnature) VALUES (@Singnature);
SELECT Id, Singnature FROM MailsSignature WHERE (Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY())
For testing I created a desktop application and found that the same Code, same(Use existing stored procedure in TableAdpater Configuration Wizard) and same stored procedure is working fine in inserting image into the table.
I am manually replicating parts of a SQL Server CE database (running windows mobile 5.0) to a centralized SQL Server 2000 database.
My program is throwing an exception whenever I try to insert an image data type into the 2000 server from the PDA. I am using parameterized queries.
Error is as follows: [error] System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError() at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning() at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run() at System.Data.SqlClient.ExecuteReader() at System.Data.SqlClient.ExecuteNonQuery() at PDASync.Database.ExecuteIDRemote() [/error]
The code for my ExecuteIDRemote method works fine for other queries. It also works if I remove the image column from the offending query.
Hey all, I have a table that i would like to be able to store images in but dont know how i can ge them in there. How can i put the image in the database? (sql express 2005, VS 2005 Pro) vbThanks!
hi, please help me about how can I make a database containing image I mean I want to make a database recording the date field and the image specified how would it be possible the database show the image in records
I am using the 3-tiered architecture design (presentation, business laws, and data acess layers). I am stuck on how to send the image the user selects in the upload file control to the BLL and then to the DAL because the DAL does all the inserts into the database. I would like to be able to check the file type in the BLL to make sure the file being uploaded is indeed a picture. Is there a way I can send the location of the file to the BLL, check the filetype, then upload the file and have the DAL insert the image into the database? I have seen examples where people use streams to upload the file directly from their presentation layer, but I would like to keep everything seperated in the three classes if possible. I also wasn't sure what variable type the image would be in the function in the BLL that receive the image from the PL. If there are any examples or tips anyone can give me that would be appreciated.
Hi, I want to store an image hyperlink in a sql database but don't seem to be able to do it..is this do-able? I can store a hyperlink in text format, no problem, but how do I do the same with an image? I want to use images in my images folder. I can create an image field and set the required options to display images all that is pretty straight forward but trying to display the image as a hyperlink ( actually it's a mailto: link I want to use) seems not to be an option. The purpose of this is to allow users to upload an image together with their email address and when other users click on the image it fires up their email app. I do not want to have to use a text link. Thanks
I'm trying to upload an image to a database along with some other info. I have a form to get all the info from the user that I want to put in the database. Everything's getting into the database except for the actual image data. When I do a "select * from table" query on the database, the Image field reads "err", however I have an imagetype field in the db and it reads "image/jpeg". I have the following code to get the image into the database:

Ok, again, I'm reasonably new to this. I've been trying to display an image stored in SQL in a ASP.NET page. Pretty simple stuff I would have thought. I've read countless examples of how to do this online, and many of them use the same method of displaying the image, but none seem to work for me. The problem seems to lie in the following line of code: Dim imageData As Byte() = CByte(command.ExecuteScalar())Which always returns the error: Value of type 'Byte' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of Byte'.Here's the rest of my code, hope someone can help. It's doing my head in! Imports System.Data.SqlClient Imports System.Data Imports System.Drawing Imports System.IOPartial Class _ProfileEditor Inherits System.Web.UI.PageProtected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load 'Get the UserID of the currently logged on user Dim NTUserID As String = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.ToString Session("UserID") = NTUserID Dim Photo As Image = NothingDim connection As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("MyConnectionString").ConnectionString) Dim command As SqlCommand = connection.CreateCommand() command.CommandText = "SELECT Photograph, ImageType FROM Users WHERE UserID = @UserID"command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@UserID", NTUserID) connection.Open()Dim imageData As Byte() = CByte(command.ExecuteScalar())Dim memStream As New MemoryStream(Buffer) Photo = Image.FromStream(memStream) End Sub End Class
Dear Friends, I have read many solution over the net, but since I am unable to utilize anyone according to my needs I am seeking help from you people. I have a table imagedata in sql server 2005 having fields name and imageperson. Name is string and imageperson is Image field. I have successfully stored name of the person and his image in database. I have populated the dataset from codebehind and bind it to the repeater. By writing <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "name")%>I am a able to retrieve the name of the person. But when I pass photodata as <%#photogen((DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "imageperson")))%> where photogen is function in code behind having structure public void photogen(byte[] dataretrieved) { Response.BinaryWrite(datarerieved) } But it is giving error at <%#photogen((DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "imageperson")))%> The best overloaded method match for '_Default.photogen(byte[])' has some invalid arguments AND Cannot convert object to byte[]. Can anyone please provide me working solution with code for aspx page and code behind. Thanks and regards

I have a SQL database that has Images stored. I am able to read the image from the database and display it. But i am not able to control the size and the position where it is displayed. I want to develop something like a photo album. the images should be displayed in a smaller size. but when the user clicks on the image, it should blow up to its original size. I am struggling with this for some time. Any suggestions as how to develop it??. Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
I am creating a update, delete, edit form for my web database. The form works in everyway except that when I try to upload the image to the database it does not go into the database. (I know the pros and cons of storing images in a database. In this instance it is what makes the most since. ) I have to admit I have never uploaded anything to my server or database before (other than plain text). I have read through several articles and have a high level of understanding. I found an example on a website that used the OnInserting/OnUpdating command. But it is not working. I tried to find another similar example so that I could better understand it and try to fix what must be wrong. I can't find a similar example. I am posting the code I have below. Any help would be most appreciated.
