win2k server and mysql blob problem

[Anon]

i have a question on an php 4.1.2 / mysql 3.23.43 /apache install on win2k server
everything works fine even storing html in a blob work but when i put an image or binary file into a blob field i get a corrupted image or nothing at all when i parse it... (i used the exact same scripts as i use on my linux server and it on the linux server it works) any suggestions?

normal file-uploads to the harddisk no problem
i'm desparate

thanks a bunch

stop storing images in the db...store the path and file name instead...way easier, better db performance, no db bloat...

when showing the image, call the db for the path /filename and merely echo to the <img> tag:

echo "<img src="$resultfromDB.gif">";
