So can you help out form how t

Answer 1

I tried all above solution and fail, it just added a null file to the DB.

However, I was able to get it done by moving the image(fileName.jpg) file first in to below folder(in my case) C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\Uploads and then I executed below command and it works for me,

INSERT INTO xx_BLOB(ID,IMAGE) VALUES(1,LOAD_FILE('C:/ProgramData/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.7/Uploads/fileName.jpg'));

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

This is on mysql workbench -- give the image file path:

INSERT INTO XX_SAMPLE(id,image) VALUES(3,'/home/ganesan-pc/Documents/aios_database/confe.jpg');
