I'm probably a little late to this discussion, but I have had issues before
with BYTEA in postgres before as well, this is what I found worked.
use Digest::MD5;
use DBI qw(:sql_types);
use DBD::Pg qw(:pg_types);
....
....
sub InsertBin($$$)
{
my ( $dbh, $md5sum, $filename ) = @_;
open BIN,"<$filename" || die "Unable to open";
my $bin;
while (<BIN>){
$bin .= $_;
}
my $insertsql = qq( INSERT INTO enc_virus VALUES( ?,?,? )); # filename -
md5sum - binary
my $sth = $dbh->prepare($insertsql);
$sth->bind_param(1,$filename);
$sth->bind_param(2,$md5sum);
$sth->bind_param(3,$bin, { pg_type => PG_BYTEA });
$sth->execute();
}
I hope this helps if you haven't figured it out yet
