Since you mention JSP, I assume you are using JDBC.
You can store the contents of a file in a bytea using plain JDBC no lo_import() required
String sql = "insert into images (id, image_data) values (?,?)";
Connection con = ....;
File uploaded = new File("...");
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(uploaded);
PreparedStatement pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
pstmt.setInt(1, 42);
pstmt.setBinaryStream(in, (int)uploaded.length());
pstmt.executeUpdate();
This *only* works with bytea column, not with "large objects".
In production code you obviously need to close all resources and handle errors.
I left that out for simplicity.
