Are you escaping the image string before you insert it? berber -----Original Message----- From: tedd [mailto:tedd@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2006 7:48 PM To: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Why does this work on one server, but not another? Hi gang: I posted this question to a MySQL list, but apparently it stumped them. So, I'll ask here: On one server, the following code works without any problems whatsoever: --- quote --- $sqlString = "INSERT INTO $dbtable (id, image_type, image_large, image_small, image_width, image_height, image_name, image_size, date_time, date_created ) VALUES ('', '{$type}', '{$image_large}', '{$image_small}', '{$width}', '{$height}','{$name}', '{$size}', '{$date_time}', '{$date_created}')"; $result = mysql_query($sqlString) or die("2. Error in query $sqlString " . mysql_error()); --- un-quote --- However, on another server, it doesn't (remember the code is identical for both). I have looked at the PHP Info on both servers, the php versions are different (4.3.10 v 4.4.2) but the mysql specifics are identical except the version differs slightly (v 4.1.15 v 4.1.14). A clue, on the server it chokes on, if I reduce the image size to 100 x 67 pixels, it will work. However, if the image is 150 x 100 pixels, or greater, it will crater. The error message is: 2. Error in query INSERT INTO as_table2 (id, image_type, image_large, image_small, image_width, image_height, image_name, image_size, date_time, date_created ) VALUES ('', 'image/jpeg', 'ÿØÿà\0JFIF\ -snip- (the entire text file for the image) 'v_small.jpg', '320000', '2006-03-22 14:10:55', '2006-03-22 14:10:55') You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ö~?L-?æÏ ôÏjâ?(xÏJ?÷Ý>Ô?s?íHñåE(?êÏØÊ?Ü "ÁíÎk????iË3¬4A''ÿ\0?Mm¿ä÷´?ÿ\0m ÿ\0&¿' at line 2 Any ideas?
