Re: File Upload by Oracle webserver/PLSQL?

Sorry, Joel jumped the gun on this one.

Yes it is true, internally we have a utility that allows for file upload/download to/from the web browser to the database or file system. It works as an OWA replacement (eg: you are still ultimately invoking a stored procedure on the server). It has a *lot* of other stuff in it as well.

I am finishing the testing on this (we just completed a new version). it comes in a cartridge version as well as cgi (hence supports all versions of web server and other web servers as well)....

anyway, look for this in govt.us.oracle.com in early 97'. I'll follow this posting up in january when it's there. It will have binaries for NT and Solaris, source code for all others....

It will be a good example of what a cartridge looks like as well.
