After some research I found a workaround, not a solution. Diggin in
www.php.net I found the following (potential) bug apparently resolved
time ago
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35155
in relation to
Bug #35155 prepared statement with blob field does not work
Which is exactly what it is happening to me. It refers to the use a
function mysqli_stmt_send_long_data.
Apparently you only need to use this function if your data is larger
than max_allowed_packet, which in my system is 16MB.
The fact is, it is the only way I have managed to store pdfs files in
the field. My pdf files a very small < 5Kb.
Happy to have it working, but hesitant to understand why....
Regards.
